A recipe by Chef Nicolas Beaumont

Crown tart base: Pre-bake the tart base for 15 to 20 minutes at 150°C.

Soft orange ganache: Heat the cream, trimoline and glucose. Pour over the chocolates. Mix then add the finely chopped oranges, then the Grand Marnier.

Vanilla creamy insert with orange zest: Zest the orange and the vanilla pod on the cream and infuse. Blanch the yolks with the sugar. Mix the two together, then cook to 85°C. Remove from the heat and stir in the rehydrated gelatine. Set in a silicone mould in the negative cold.

Dark chocolate mousse: Melt the dark chocolate, then add the softened butter and the yolks. Mix with the stiffly beaten egg whites and sugar.

Mirror chocolate glaze: Melt together. Use the glaze at 30°C.

3: Turn out the vanilla cream insert after freezing.

8: Decorate with a tangerine cut into 8 segments, pieces of chocolate crumble, pieces of tangerine crumble, orange zest and bubble sugar.
