Critical Success Points

  • Keeping the butter cold while making the crust dough
  • Chilling the dough before rolling
  • Blind baking the crust without over‑browning
  • Tempering the eggs and adding gelatin while the cream is hot
  • Folding whipped cream gently to retain air

Safety Warnings

  • Hot milk and pastry cream can cause severe burns – handle with care.
  • Gelatin must be fully dissolved in hot liquid; avoid inhaling powdered gelatin.
  • Use oven mitts when handling hot pans and removing weights.
