Tips

One way to create an impressive dessert is by substituting ingredients to add a unique twist.

Additionally, experimenting with different toppings such as white chocolate ganache, crushed pistachios, and edible flowers can enhance the visual appeal and add interesting textures. Lastly, incorporating contrasting elements like tangy passionfruit sorbet and crunchy almond praline can provide a delightful sensory experience.
