    Un délice ! Entremet fait ce week-end ! C’est vraiment très bon mais j’ai trouvé assez technique. Surtout la partie financier qui sert de pourtour… J’ai dû la refaire !

    Bonjour, je voudrais « essayer » de réaliser l’entremet pour noël, mais pensez vous que je peux finir le montage vendredi pour que nous le mangions samedi? Le biscuit ne sera pas trop détrempé ?
    Merci pour vos conseils

    Bonjour Emmanuelle,
    Je vais essayer de faire ce gâteau pour Pâques. C’est le première fois que j’utilise de la pectine et j’ai vu qu’il y avait plusieurs sortes de pectine (NH, rapide…). Laquelle conseillez vous ?
    Merci
