    Shows off lots of techniques which is awesome and I like the unusual use of tiny flowers.

    Yet the actual presentation seems self-consciously symmetrical and formal – the alternating creampuffs, etc.

    For me the visual appeal would be greater if the plating were less structured, instead a tad more relaxed.

    Also feels like each element has ‘main character syndrome’ – no obvious focal point.

  2. Individually it looks great, but that cut makes it seam as if you had cut a meal into two and only gave that customer half of it. Try to hide the cut and turn the plate 90° so that you have a top and a botton rather than two different 2 halves. It might be artistic as is, but I dare say that most customers wouldn’t fully appreciate it visually.

    Looking good, some pointers:
    Get the icecream colder, the icecream is too flat
    Less crumble
    Toast the hazelnuts
    Maybe some sauce over the cremeux dripping into the middle, or spray it with chocolate for a more interesting texture

    Not bad as is though, but always improvements to be made

    I would *juuuuuust* angle the right side atop the middle swirl, just so it points diagonally to the bottom right. It would look really pretty.

    Man this looks good. I agree that cutting the circle in half looks a bit brutal, maaaaybe moving the soil and ice cream closer to remove the gap makes it more elegant?

    Either way, this is a stunning dish. I’d be proud if i were you

  7. This looks like you downloaded the gronda app and mashed together the first 4 desserts onto one plate
