Rosy - Rose & Lychee Entremets



On the train back home, I was thinking of baking rose & strawberry streusel bars.
But, when I got home I realised my mum had throw away my rose jam.
So, I changed my mind & made these rose & lychee entremets.
You might have noticed I've already made few lychee entremets.
Yea, this is another one :P


It's a little difficult to see from the pictures but there're 5 components:
1. almond pate sablee
2. lychee jelly
3. rose white chocolate mousse
4. lychee mousse
5. lychee milk glaze


Rose & lychee is always a perfect couple & the result is satisfying.

Using a hand whisk, whisk together butter & icing sugar.
Add egg & whisk until combined.
Mix together vanilla sugar, ground almond & flour, fold with the batter.
Wrap with cling film & refrigerate for 1-2 h.
Gently flour the surface, roll into a 2 mm thick & cut into 3“ discs.
