Critical Success Points

  • Cook the apples until a lightly caramelized compote is achieved
  • Prepare the Namelaka cream respecting the milk temperature so the gelatin works
  • Properly soak the biscuits so they stay moist
  • Add the insert before the final cream layer to avoid shifting
  • Press the biscuit base firmly before the final freezing

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot milk carefully to avoid burns
  • Wear kitchen gloves when handling the hot mold
  • Observe the white chocolate melting times to prevent it from burning
