    Whisk the warmed eggs and sugar to ribbon stage. Add the sifted ground almonds, flour and baking powder and then the melted butter. Pour into Flexipan® FP1758 (15 x 2.4 cm) silicon moulds. Bake in a fan-assisted oven at 190°C for 10 mn. Cool on the silicon mat. 

  2. 2

    Coffee syrup for soaking

    Pour boiling water over the chopped and roasted coffee beans. Add the instant coffee. Make a pale caramel with the sugar. Deglaze with water. Filter and cool. Dry the coffee beans in the oven so they can be used in the coffee flavoured crème anglaise. 

  3. 3

    Creamy coffee/tonka

    Bring the cream to the boil and infuse the grated tonka beans. Make a pale caramel with the sugar. Deglaze with the warm cream and glucose. Add the gelatine and the cocoa butter and strain. Pour onto the milk chocolate couverture. Blend, cool and spread onto the soaked biscuit sponge.

  5. 5

    Coffee Bavarian cream

    Infuse the milk with the coffee beans for 30 mn. Make a crème anglaise with the milk, instant coffee, egg yolks and sugar. Add the gelatine. Leave to cool. Fold in the whipped cream.
