How to Make Raspberry & Rose Hearts:

Raspberry Puree

1. Bring the raspberry purée to the boil.

2. Once boiling, remove from the heat then add 20g of your sugar and pectin, whisking to prevent clumps.

3. Add the mixture back to the heat, bringing the temp up to 97C. Once ready, add 24g of your glucose and remaning sugar and whisk into the puree.

4. After this, the mixture will begin to set very quickly, so it should be transferred to a heatproof bowl, where it can be cooled and blitzed with a hand blender into a fine paste.

Rose Ganache

1. Bring the cream, Rose Spice Drops and glucose to the boil.

2. Once boiling, remove from the heat, allow to cool to around 80*C.

3. In a bowl, combine the chocolate and the cream mix, then emulsify with a hand blender.

4. Cool to 35*C before filling the moulds.

Composition

1. Spray the mould with sparkling red cocoa butter.

2. Cast the mould with Cacao Barry Java couverture chocolate.

3. Pipe the puree into the mould followed by the ganache, leaving a 2mm gap for the base.

4. Cap the chocolates with Cacao Barry Java and a transfer sheet.
