Critical Success Points

  • Whipping very stiff egg whites
  • Baking the dacquoise (180 °C, 15 min)
  • Activating the agar‑agar (boiling)
  • Reaching 121 °C for the Italian meringue syrup
  • Freezing the log (4‑5 h)
  • Slow baking of the French meringue (100 °C, 2 h)

Safety Warnings

  • The meringue syrup reaches 121 °C – handle with care and use a thermometer.
  • Agar‑agar must boil to activate its gelling power.
  • Use the torch away from flammable materials.
  • Handle hot knives with protective gloves.
