TOPIC OF YOUR CHOICE: I chose to create my dessert around the flavours of my childhood, such as Riz au Lait (the one that my mother made for me), Sablé Breton, and pineapple. FLAVOURS IN YOUR CREATION:  Sablé breton and cocoa gaufrette mixed together in a crumbly biscuit riz au lait mousse with vanilla from Tahiti poached pineapple in exotic fruits and Vanilla from tahiti exotic fruits coulis and vanilla from tahiti INSPIRATION BEHIND YOUR CREATION:  I looked towards my childhood to create this pâtisserie, which has very little added sugar, and is made low fat with seasonal and healthy fruits The pairing of creamy Riz au lait and crunchy sablé breton, associated with the chocolate strength, bring back memories from when I was younger. The vanilla flavoured poached pineapple brings fruity and  tangy notes to the dessert. The shape reminds of a leaf that has fallen on the ground, same as the ones that I used to step onto when I went for walks in the forest in autumn.
