Assembly and finishing

Coat one half of a 13cm Medium Egg Mold with tempered CARAÏBE. Turn over, leave the liquid to spread for a few moments, then smooth away any excess. Drain the molds by holding them suspended over two rulers. Before setting is complete, trim away any excess, then mold again. Tap the mold to obtain the thickness you require. Leave to set, trim again, then refrigerate for a few minutes or leave at a temperature of 60°F (17°C) until the chocolate is ready to slip out of its mold.Create a flat edge for your half-eggs by laying each one down onto a guitar sheet covered with a layer of tempered chocolate. Stick onto a Base Mold. Coat the Geometric Egg Bar Mold with tempered DULCEY. Turn over, leave the liquid to spread for a few moments, then smooth away any excess. Drain the molds by holding them suspended over two rulers. Leave to set. Make the cookie praliné and weigh out 50g for each bar. Leave to set and fill in any gaps.Spray the half-egg with some tempered CARAÏBE mix. Spray the bar with tempered DULCEY mix. Stick the bar flush onto the half-egg’s flat edge.
