    towards the end, add the thick fruit pieces at the beginning of the crepes layering again until

  5. Melt the chocolate and gradually fold in the cream until smooth and glossy, once the crêpe roll
    has set, pour over the ganache and add your fruit toppings, chill again until set and slice & enjoy!
