Rich Chocolate and Hazelnut Entremets
I craft these entremets for those who crave deep, complex flavours. Using only real couverture chocolate and slow-cooked caramel, each layer is designed to be savoured, not just eaten.
My process is a conversation. Tell me the flavours you love, and I will build a custom entremet that is entirely yours. I craft from taste, not from templates.
Two slices of the Midnight Sun, showcasing the perfect balance of dark chocolate and rich caramel. It's a moment of indulgence, designed to be shared.
This is what I call a spoonful of wonder. The combination of airy chocolate mousse and a drip of luscious caramel creates a moment of pure, unadulterated indulgence.

The Midnight Sun entremet pairs beautifully with an Espresso Martini. The bold coffee notes of the cocktail cut through the richness of the chocolate and caramel, creating a sophisticated pairing.
A glass of red wine is another perfect companion for the Midnight Sun. The wine's tannins and fruit notes complement the deep chocolate, elevating the entire experience.
Here you can see the ingredients and the feeling of my Midnight Sun entremet. It’s a simple equation: chocolate plus caramel equals bliss.

My "Go Nuts for Hazelnuts" entremet is a celebration of texture and flavour. It's built on a foundation of rich hazelnut and chocolate, designed for those who love a nutty, satisfying dessert.

About Rich & Decadent: Chocolate, Nut & Caramel
When I work with chocolate and caramel, I am looking for depth, not just sweetness. Real couverture chocolate behaves differently than compound—it melts at body temperature, leaving a clean, lingering finish rather than a waxy coating. In these creations, you will find a balance of textures, from the snap of a tempered shell to the silkiness of our hazelnut praline, all held together by a structured, five-layer French architecture.
Creating a truly decadent entremet is less about decoration and more about engineering taste. Every component has a purpose: the airy mousse provides the vehicle for flavour, the crémeux adds silkiness, and the crunch layer—made with feuilletine—ensures you aren't just eating something soft.
The Ingredients
I refuse to use compound chocolate. Couverture contains a higher percentage of cocoa butter, which is essential for that glossy mirror glaze finish and the melt-in-the-mouth texture. It is a temperamental ingredient that requires precision, but the result is a chocolate experience that actually tastes like cacao.
The Caramel
My caramel is cooked slowly to develop a deep, toasted note that pairs perfectly with the bitterness of dark chocolate or the richness of hazelnut. It is not just sugar; it is a fundamental flavour element that anchors the entire dessert.
Customisation
Because these are made to order in Delhi-NCR, I can adjust the intensity of the chocolate or the sweetness of the praline to suit your palate. Whether you are hosting a formal gathering or looking for an evening indulgence, these entremets are designed to be enjoyed chilled, allowing the complex fats and aromas to fully open up on the palate.
Cerise
I started Cerise because I wanted to move away from standard cakes and towards desserts that reflect real technique and intention. Every entremet I make is a small project, built from scratch with honest ingredients and a focus on how flavours linger long after the last bite.
