Chaleur: Strawberry and white chocolate mousse entremets: My time to play!

 I dreamed about making this cake for a long time ^^. There were a lot of problem lately (the flood and the people, hehe), but now I feel that I have enough time to do something I really want to.

Chaleur: Strawberry and white chocolate mousse entremets

It’s quite fun to make something so beautiful. Each parts that you make are so important, so planing is the best thing that will help you through the work. The name of these entremets is Chaleur (it mean heat or warmth in French), and come from the Patisserie l’abricotier that share their recipe in the magazine “cafe-sweets(カフェ-スイーツ) vol.123“. Anyway I have to make some adaptation (again, it’s not easy to follow all of the recipe that made for professional in our home kitchen).
It contains strawberry cream (or you can call it jelly), strawberry mousse, white chocolate mousse, biscuits d’amands and Strawberry milk glaze, very good for anyone who love strawberry, hehe. As always, each part of it is not hard to make at all, but I can’t say that it didn’t take some time to crate it (unless you have a Blast Chiller/Shock Freezer because the time that you have to spend is for waiting each layer to firm enough to continue your work -*-). Like the jelly, I had to wait for almost 5 hours for it to firm enough to take it out of the mold, and I almost ruin the strawberry mousse because I miscalculate it.
So I suggest you to start making the strawberry cream a day ahead, so you will prevent the problem. 
For the decoration, because I had enough time to play so I made the macarons and the white chocolate too, but I think it’s very delicious on its own, so I let it to be your decision, ^^. If you want to play it’s quite fun, but if you only want to eat, stop working after pour the glaze and enjoy it.
