Mocha Dessert

Instructions

Milk Chocolate Mocha Mousse

1. Prepare the Coffee Milk Mixture: Combine milk, coffee beans, and mocha mousse black tea in a pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it simmer for 15 minutes, allowing the coffee flavor to infuse into the milk.
2. Whip the Cream: While the milk mixture simmers, whip the cream to medium peaks. Set the whipped cream aside.
3. Make the Ganache: After 15 minutes, strain the coffee milk mixture over the milk chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is fully melted and the ganache is smooth.
4. Cool and Fold in the Whipped Cream: Once cooled to room temperature, Gently fold the whipped cream into the ganache in batches, ensuring a smooth, airy mousse.
5. Mold the Mousse: Scoop or pipe the mousse into your desired molds.

Seabuckthorn Gel

6. Prepare the Seabuckthorn Base: Pour the sea buckthorn purée into a pot and bring it to a boil.
7. Combine Sugar and Agar: In a separate bowl, mix the sugar and agar powder together to prevent clumping.
8. Incorporate the Sugar-Agar Mixture: Once the purée is boiling, gradually whisk in the sugar-agar mixture.
9. Add Lemon Juice and Cook: Stir in the lemon juice. Let the mixture boil for 1–2 minutes to activate the agar.
10. Set and Chill: Pour the mixture into a container and refrigerate until fully set. It will form a thick, jello-like texture once cooled.
11. Blend to a Gel: Blend the set mixture until it reaches a smooth, gel-like consistency.
12. Use as Desired: The gel is now ready to be used as a garnish or filling.

Salted Milk Chocolate Crumb

13. Prepare the Sugar Syrup: Combine sugar and water in a pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, ensuring it boils steadily for 4–5 minutes. Avoid stirring too often to prevent crystallization. If needed, add a little more water to maintain a smooth consistency. The syrup is ready when it turns into a clear, see-through consistency.
14. Melt the Milk Chocolate: While the sugar syrup is boiling, melt the milk chocolate over a bain-marie (double boiler).
15. Combine Syrup and Chocolate: Once the syrup is ready, quickly whisk it into the melted chocolate. Work fast, as the mixture may start to clump—this is normal.
16. Form the Crumb: Continue mixing until the chocolate mixture turns into a crumbly texture.
17. Season and Use: Add a pinch of salt to the crumb and mix. The salted milk chocolate crumb is now ready to use as a garnish or component in desserts.
