        ASSEMBLY AND FINISHING

        In the PCB Création silicone moulds ("Vrille" 087078), pour the glaze at the bottom (at 60°C) and place the choux on top. Once the glaze has cooled, unmold and fill the choux with vanilla pastry cream, then add a small amount of dark berry confit. For the smaller choux, fill only with the dark berry confit.
