Critical Success Points

  • Do not overwork the shortcrust pastry
  • Blind bake the base (do not overbake)
  • Properly temper the cherry pastry cream
  • Gently fold in the whipped cream to obtain a smooth diplomat cream
  • Arrange the cherries in a rosette to avoid oxidation
  • Glaze the cherries immediately with the hot glaze

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the very hot oven (170‑190 °C).
  • Be careful of splatters when cooking the pastry cream.
  • Use well‑sharpened knives to avoid cuts.
  • Raw eggs may pose a salmonella risk; cook the pastry cream to 85 °C.
