Preparation steps

1. Sweet pastry

Rub the butter into the flour until the mixture becomes breadcrumbs. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until combined. Store the dough at +4°C for 24 hours. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 2.5 mm.

2. Hazelnut cake

Mix all ingredients together.

3. Creamy calamansi cream

Mix the powdered gelatin and water. Boil the calamansi puree, eggs, and sugar. Add the gelatin mixture, white chocolate, and cocoa butter. Blend the mixture and pour into 7 cm molds.

4. Meringue

Whip the egg whites and invert sugar until they form soft peaks. Add the boiling glucose and continue to whip the meringue until it cools completely.

Process:

Line the pomponette molds with an 8 cm diameter round of sweet pastry. Pre-bake for 20 minutes at 150°C. Pour 40 g of cake batter into each mold, then bake for 12 minutes at 160°C. Brush the edges with egg wash and bake for an additional 6 minutes at 170°C. Glaze the kalamansi cream disk and place it on the tart. Pipe a dot of meringue on top of the cream.
