Genoise:

Please watch my detailed “how to make a perfect genoise” video recipe.

Syrup:

Water 40
Sugar 20g
Cointreau (orange liquor) 4g

Blueberry Confit (that uses pectin NH):

Blueberry Puree (if self-made, then just blend your blueberries with 10% sugar.) 65gSugar 8g

Lemon juice 2g

Whipped Cream:

Heavy Cream 400g
Sugar 40g
Mascarpone 40g
Cointreau 6g (replaceable with another type of liquor like kirsche)

Instructions

Syrup:

Bring water & sugar to a boil.
Add the Cointreau. I strongly recommend adding some sort of liquor (like kirsche) but if you don’t have any, just leave it out.

Blueberry Confit (that uses pectin NH):

Mix sugar & pectin.
Heat the blueberry puree and when it’s 40℃ add in the sugar & pectin.
Once it starts boiling boil for another 1~2min and add the lemon juice.
Let it boil for another 10sec and take it off the heat.
Let it cool down, chill it in the fridge, and use it when needed.

Whipped Cream:

Add everything into a bowl and whip to desired consistency.

Assembly:

Please refer to the video for the assembly. Yes, you do need plenty of fresh blueberries!!

Notes

How to store:

It’s best served 3~4hrs after the assembly (all the flavours come together). Can store in the fridge for up to 2days.

Hi! I’m Hanbit, professional pastry chef and CEO of Sugar Lane Baking Academy based in Seoul, Korea. Funny enough, my background had nothing to do with baking - far from it. I studied mathematics at university and then worked in finance, strategy consulting and IT. Then one day in 2018, I quit my job and enrolled at a pastry school. I have loved it ever since!As my story suggests, I really enjoy being a pastry chef and I am keen to share the joy of baking with as many people as possible. Baking can seem daunting at first but as long as you take it step-by-step anyone can do it - even someone with no baking background like myself managed to become a professional pastry chef!I'll try my best to include detailed explanations and tips in my recipes so that you will be able to bake amazing desserts. I aim to create videos that can be enjoyed by people at all levels - those who bake for fun as well as those who want to get more serious.
