White Chocolate Whipped Ganache:
- Combine the first portion of cream and glucose in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Melt the Ivoire 35% chocolate, slowly in a microwave, to 43°C (110°F). Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
- In several additions, add the hot liquid to the melted chocolate, stirring well between each addition.
- Once all the hot liquid is combined, mix well with an immersion blender, then add the second addition of cold cream and mix again. Refrigerate at least 6 hours before using (overnight is ideal).
Assembly and Finishing:
- Slice the biscuits in half and dust the top portion with confectioners’ sugar.
- Whip the ganache by hand until soft peaks. Place a large dollop on the bottom portion of the biscuit and garnish with assorted berries.
- Finish with the biscuit top and berry sauce or puree.
