Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate
- 250 milliliters Heavy cream
- 50 grams Powdered sugar
- 120 milliliters Raspberry puree
- 2 pieces Gelatin leaves
- 100 grams Fresh raspberries
- 20 grams Unsalted butter
- 3 drops Edible red food coloring
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 80 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 milliliters Water
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the chocolate petals: Melt 150 grams of dark chocolate over a double boiler until smooth.
Step 2
Spread the melted chocolate thinly onto parchment paper and use a palette knife to shape petal-like forms. Refrigerate until set.
Step 3
To make the mousse: Whip 150 milliliters of heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Refrigerate the whipped cream.
Step 4
Melt the remaining dark chocolate (50 grams) with butter in a heatproof bowl over a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
Step 5
Fold the melted chocolate gently into the prepared whipped cream. Add vanilla extract and fold until combined. Refrigerate the mousse for 30 minutes.
Step 6
Prepare the raspberry coulis: Soak gelatin leaves in cold water for 5 minutes to soften.
Step 7
In a small saucepan, warm raspberry puree with granulated sugar over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Avoid boiling.
Step 8
Remove the puree from heat and stir in the softened gelatin leaves until dissolved. Allow the coulis to cool slightly.
Step 9
Assemble the dessert: Spoon a layer of mousse into small serving cups, followed by a drizzle of raspberry coulis. Add a few fresh raspberries on top.
Step 10
Carefully arrange the chilled chocolate petals around the edge of each cup to resemble a tulip flower. Use a small amount of melted chocolate as 'glue,' if needed.
Step 11
Finish with a drop of edible red food coloring on the petals for a vibrant touch, and serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
