Coffee & dulcey tart


Coffee & dulcey tart

06 March 2021

If you like coffee desserts, I can only advise you to try this recipe! A coffee & dulcey chocolate tart, with different textures... I really loved it. On top of that, it's rather quick to make, even if you have to divide the work over two days: the first day the tart dough and the ganache, the second day the cooking, the crispy layer, the crémeux and the decoration with the whipped ganache!

Followed every step of the recipe correctly, and yet not everything turned out correct. The measurement is definitely off. There is not enough whipped ganache, crispy layer, nor cremeux to cover the entire tart. Also, there is too little gelatin in the cremeux which resulted in pure liquid. Really disappointed in how this recipe is written since the taste of every layer was so amazing, but it didn't give me the right results.
