Method

  1. Sponge sheet

    Add all of the sponge sheet ingredients to a mixing bowl fitted with a whisk and mix for 1 minute on slow and then 4-5 minutes on fast speed.

  2. Sponge sheet

    Deposit 800-900 g onto a lined 18" x 30" baking tray and spread out evenly, then bake in a deck oven at 230°C for approximately 5 minutes.

  3. Pear and walnut domes

    Dissolve the DAWN Sanatine Powder in the boiling water.

  4. Pear and walnut domes

    Mix the DAWN Delifruit Classic Pear and DAWN Walnut Compound together, add the Sanatine solution and mix in thoroughly.

  5. Pear and walnut domes

    Deposit the filling into 80 x 40 mm half sphere silicone moulds and place into the freezer for at least 3 hours.

  6. Caramel filling

    Pipe 20 g of DAWN Delicream Pikfein Caramel into the base of each PRUVÉ Straight French Tartlet, then cover the caramel layer with a 70 mm sponge disk cut from the prepared sponge sheet.

  7. Assembly

    Remove the semi frozen/set pear and walnut domes from the silicone moulds and place them onto cooling wires over a papered tray.

  8. Assembly

    Add the DAWN Belnap Neutral Fruit Glaze and 100 g water to a saucepan and bring to the boil. Place the DAWN Decorgel Plus Neutral into a bowl and mix until smooth, add the Belnap solution and, if needed, reheat to the required temperature.
