- As soon as it starts to boil, add the sifted flour and stir continuously.
- Cook for 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
- In a food processor, add the beaten eggs one by one while mixing.
- Once the dough is smooth, place it in a piping bag and pipe into 3 cm rings lined with silicone.

- Mix the sugar with the eggs and the purees.
- Heat the mixture to just below boiling point (do not let it boil!).
- Remove from the heat source and add the soaked gelatin.
- Let the mixture cool to 40-45°C and make an emulsion in a blender with the pieces of cold butter. Mix for 5 minutes.
