Joe's Carrot Choc-Orange Pastry
Joe Wilkinson created carrot-shaped rough puff pastries filled with a chocolate orange ganache (dark chocolate, orange zest and double cream) garnished with fresh Japanese knotweed as the green stem. Edible eyes were applied to each carrot in a final whimsical touch.
Narrator: "Shaped and glazed to look like carrots, but filled with a chocolate orange ganache."
{Joe}: "I've got this Japanese knotweed that I picked fresh from the garden."
{Joe}: "Not many people say they've mixed chocolate, the skin of an orange and double cream and made it sexy. Job done."
{Paul}: "I think the design is exceptional. I think they really work and what I do like when you look at them initially is the lamination. You can see the lamination in them."
{Paul}: "Your pastry is probably five minutes from perfection, but actually, the flavor inside works well. I think you've done a great job. Well done, Joe."
{Cherish}: "Yeah, I'm in Alice in the Wonderland."
{Cherish}: "It's very sexy eating it, and I feel that I'm actually enjoying it. Love it, love it."
