Recipes

Plum Ice

Chef Juliette

Plum Ice

Glace aux prunes, calibrated to 20° Baumé before churning, lets ripe fruit, lemon, and syrup meet in the exact balance that keeps each spoonful bright, smooth, and softly scoopable.

Grape Ice

Chef Juliette

Grape Ice

Glace aux raisins is sugar measured as structure: pressed sweet grapes, three lemons, and a precise 20° Baumé reading churn into a brilliant, fine-grained ice that tastes first of fruit.

Violet Ice

Chef Juliette

Violet Ice

Glace aux Violettes catches a fragile perfume in boiling syrup, then sharpens it with lemon: ten minutes of infusion, no more, before a fine pale ice is churned for the table.

Glace Alhambra

Chef Juliette

Glace Alhambra

A vanilla ice shell around kümmel-scented Chantilly and strawberries, moulded as a narrow scallop and served in generous slices: cold, fragrant, and splendid without a pastry brigade.

Glace Carmen

Chef Juliette

Glace Carmen

Three frozen flavours, one clean reveal: raspberry ice, coffee ice, and vanilla ice cream set in bold vertical stripes inside a fluted mould, a lesson in patience disguised as celebration.

Glace Comtesse Marie

Chef Juliette

Glace Comtesse Marie

Glace Comtesse Marie turns two familiar ices into a formal frozen entremets: strawberry wrapped around vanilla, then crowned with cold, deeply grooved vanilla ribbons that hold their shape.

Glace Coucher de Soleil

Chef Juliette

Glace Coucher de Soleil

Strawberry fruit ice, fragrant with Grand Marnier, folded through soft Chantilly until it turns the coral rose of an evening sky, then heaped in chilled crystal bowls for a generous, quietly splendid finish.

Glace Dame-Jeanne

Chef Juliette

Glace Dame-Jeanne

Glace Dame-Jeanne teaches the frozen mould: a clean shell of vanilla ice cream enclosing orange-blossom pralin Chantilly, fine enough to melt as silk instead of crunching like sand.

Glace Dora

Chef Juliette

Glace Dora

A scallop-shaped shell of vanilla ice cream holds kirsch Chantilly, neat pineapple dice, and jewel-bright Bar-le-Duc currants. Freeze each layer before asking it to support the next.

Glace Étoile du Berger

Chef Juliette

Glace Étoile du Berger

Raspberry ice forms a crimson star around pale Bénédictine mousse, set on a crisp disc of sucre filé whose fine rays flash between the points at the moment of serving.

Glace Fleurette

Chef Juliette

Glace Fleurette

A square of vivid strawberry and pineapple ices, built in six exact layers and finished with lemon ice: the frozen dessert that teaches patience, clean edges, and the value of a level hand.

Glace Francillon

Chef Juliette

Glace Francillon

Two ices, one clean square: deep coffee around a pale Cognac center, served without garnish. Glace Francillon teaches that moulding rests on temperature, timing, and a decisive unmoulding.

Fromage Glacé

Chef Juliette

Fromage Glacé

No cheese, only the confectioner's joke: vanilla crème glacée and vivid raspberry sorbet packed vertically in a fluted mould, frozen firm, and turned out with both colours running from crown to base.

Glace des Gourmets

Chef Juliette

Glace des Gourmets

Pralined vanilla forms the cold shell around alternating rum-chestnut ice and vanilla Chantilly, then caramelized almond splinters add the crisp finish. Temperature is the discipline, and quick hands make the bombe.

Moulded Ices

Chef Juliette

Moulded Ices

Strawberry glace pressed into fruit moulds, frozen hard, and turned out with every leaf and seed intact: a celebratory frozen dessert where flavour completes the shape.

Glace des Iles

Chef Juliette

Glace des Iles

Vanilla ice clothes a scallop mould around a vivid pineapple centre, two prepared ices arranged with enough precision that every slice gives cream, fruit, and the clean pleasure of contrast.

Madeleine Glacée

Chef Juliette

Madeleine Glacée

Madeleine glacée turns vanilla ice, soft Chantilly, and kirsch-tender candied fruit into a scallop-shell centerpiece, creamy enough to slice and generous enough for a holiday table.

Mandarines Glacées

Chef Juliette

Mandarines Glacées

Leaf-on tangerines become their own frozen dessert: bright, smooth fruit ice tucked back into frosted shells, each green-topped lid restored for a celebration that looks grand and asks only for care.

Mandarines Glacées aux Perles des Alpes

Chef Juliette

Mandarines Glacées aux Perles des Alpes

Frosted tangerine shells hide a pale citrus mousse studded with whole Chartreuse bonbons, each cold pearl keeping its herbal bite against bright fruit in a celebration dessert made for the home freezer.

Glace Marie-Thérèse

Chef Juliette

Glace Marie-Thérèse

Chocolate ice forms the scalloped shell, vanilla Chantilly fills its heart, and tart pineapple ice crowns the unmoulded Glace Marie-Thérèse: a frozen celebration built on timing, contrast, and one decisive soft lining.

Meringues Glacées

Chef Juliette

Meringues Glacées

Dry, crisp meringue shells meet spoon-moulded ice only at the last moment, served singly on folded linen or joined in pairs for a celebration dessert built on timing, not fuss.

Glace Plombière

Chef Juliette

Glace Plombière

Vanilla ice cream carries jewel-bright candied fruit steeped in kirsch, while thin apricot layers cut the richness. Freeze it in one mould, unmould it whole, and let every generous slice show the pattern.

Coupes d’Antigny

Chef Juliette

Coupes d’Antigny

Coupes d’Antigny layers wild strawberry ice, fresh cream, vanilla-poached peach, and spun sugar into one cold lesson in timing: soften the ice carefully, then spin the brittle veil only when the table is ready.

Coupes Clo-clo

Chef Juliette

Coupes Clo-clo

Coupes Clo-clo marry vanilla ice, maraschino-soaked marrons glacés, and strawberry Chantilly in a festive glass: cold against cream, cherry perfume against chestnut, softness against a firm piped ridge.
