I love this. It’s pretty & choc/hazelnut is a favorite of mine.

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.

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.

Hazelnut ice cream is basically the best flavor.

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

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