White chocolate ganache is whipped until light as air and used to top this dreamy treat. Nathalie imports gold glitter glaze to fill the raspberries for a luxurious look.

METHOD
Almond Crust

1. In a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the flour and butter together until the mixture is sandy.
