Assembly and finishing
Create cylinders of Manjari 64% chocolate, using a 5 cm (2 inch) diameter tube and acetates.
Once set, turn them all out and shape them into 8 cm-long tubes. Then carefully close the tubes at one end, taking care that they are well sealed.
Stick each tube on to a piece of acetate, place on a turntable, then set to spin at maximum speed. With a piping bag, create stripes along the whole length of the tube.
Put the tube in rotation mode and use a compressor to blow away as much chocolate as possible from the tube, to make the outer casing as thin as possible.
Once everything is firmly set, start to fill the tube in reverse order of the ingredients, as follows:
- mousse
- mandarin creme
- jelly
- mandarin creme
- cremeux
- nut brittle
- sponge
Decorate with a chocolate feather and a gold leaf.
