Combine the ingredients in part 1 to make a smooth dough and bake at 140°C until golden. Leave to cool. Break up the cooled shortbread in the mixer (with the paddle). Add the melted chocolate, sunflower oil and cornflakes. Roll out and cut out pieces the same size as the pear balls.
Drain the pears and glaze with a red berry glaze. Lay on the almond shortbread, fill the hole with redcurrant chantilly and PONTHIER redcurrant purée. Garnish with fresh redcurrants. Place a quenelle of redcurrant chantilly cream in the centre. In this recipe, PONTHIER redcurrant purée can be replaced by blackcurrant or raspberry purée or by a mixture of PONTHIER passion fruit and tangerine purées
