Peach Heart

  • Good to go
  • High profit
  • Quick & easy (production)
  • Good for freezing
For Valentine’s Day, I imagined a heart-shaped indulgence: a soft Pain de Gênes biscuit, an Ontario peach jelly, a Ruby chocolate mousse with fruity notes, and a whipped white chocolate and vanilla ganache for the perfect finishing touch. Depending on the mold used, it could also be ideal for Mother’s Day.
