      I know Mont Blancs traditionally look like this, but there is no getting away from the fact that this looks like a poop with nuts in it.

      That being said, it’s plated nicely with the meringue.

      It looks like poop with roaches crawling in it but that’s not your fault. I would devour this.

      it looks very appealing and does not remind me on poop.

      how could you poop in an artfull way like that? i can only imagine someone with a stenosis in his rectum sitting on a swivel chair while pooping.

      This looks like poop on snow with flies stuck in it, some say it doesn’t but it does. I feel like I look at this dish and see the flies buzzing around it. Figure out a different shape or a different way to do the color. Or fully embrace it and place it on some lemon gel that looks like pee.

      Hmmmmm, someone I used to work with posted this on instagram yesterday. Reddit account found!

      I’m a fan. It’s unique and funny. It makes me smile. Reminds me of a beehive, not sure why.

      I LOVE mont blanc. But I also think that yours looks like poop. But why?

      Let me try to formulate contructive advice:

      Firstly, the colour turned out a bit dark. This adds to the misunderstanding and poop-ness. I would have been careful of that the moment I saw the colour. Usually I see mont blanc with a lighter colour.

      Secondly, the lines are well done but it looks too straight. This is only personal preference but a bit of spontaneity adds excitement [like so.](https://www.google.com/search?q=mont+blanc+dessert&client=ms-android-samsung-ss&prmd=isvn&sxsrf=AJOqlzWixEdD2tE4qnOHSJPf72E6e5bN6Q:1674120347213&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiHku2kqNP8AhXGS_EDHaDQB0MQ_AUoAXoECAEQAQ&biw=360&bih=670&dpr=3#imgrc=fnNzXXBIaU8VKM)

      Alternatively, you could lay it like [sideways like this.](https://www.google.com/search?q=mont+blanc+dessert&client=ms-android-samsung-ss&prmd=isvn&sxsrf=AJOqlzWixEdD2tE4qnOHSJPf72E6e5bN6Q:1674120347213&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiHku2kqNP8AhXGS_EDHaDQB0MQ_AUoAXoECAEQAQ&biw=360&bih=670&dpr=3#imgrc=Db4WKdwQ8IM2BM)

      I would try and add the nuts not on the side but either on top or do something else with it. The meringue is very pretty!

      Personally I would also love a lil flake of edible gold on the meringue.

      Good luck!
