- Instruction video(It's in Swedish): "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-FshQX-chQ".
- White cake layer will now be known as layer.
- Cut three layers & whip the cream.
- If possible use a slightly thicker layer at the bottom for a more stable tart.
- Add custard to the bottom layer.
- Don't spread it out to the edge try leaving 0.4 in, 1 cm.
- Add the middle layer, with the cut side facing the custard.
- Add a thin layer of whipped cream to, the top of, the middle layer.
- Add pear bits & spread them on top, into, the whipped cream.
- Add top layer, mold it slightly.
- Add whipped cream on top and the sides, creosote, of the nearly finished tart.
- Put it into a refrigerator.
- Start to mangle the almond paste so that it's about 0.08 in, 2 mm, thick.
- Roll the mangled almond paste onto a baking stick, or some other long cylinder shaped object.
- Take out what you previously put into the refrigerator.
- Roll out, apply, the almond paste on top of the nearly finished tart.
- Mold, & cut the excess, almond paste.
- Pour the, slightly heated, ganache on top of the tart and let it flow out.
- Stroke the ganache gentle with a pallet.
- Sweep around the tart until the drip/flow of excess ganache stops.
- Add the roasted almond, traditionally around the sides from bottom up to about a third to, or half, of the height.
- Let the ganache become more solid, & add ornaments if you have.
