Treat your ingredients with care...

- Hazelnut flour — If hazelnut flour is not available, you can substitute it with additional almond flour.
- Tahitian vanilla extract — Use high-quality Tahitian vanilla extract for its unique floral aroma.
- Grand Marnier liqueur — If desired, you can substitute Grand Marnier with another orange liqueur or omit it for a non-alcoholic version.
- Edible gold leaf — Handle the delicate gold leaf with clean, dry hands to prevent tearing.
Tips & Tricks
- To prevent cracks on the surface of the cheesecake, avoid overbeating the filling and do not open the oven door during baking.
- For a velvety texture, make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature before mixing.
- To easily remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, run a knife around the edges before releasing the sides.
- Serve the cheesecake chilled for the best flavor and texture.
- Experiment with different garnishes such as fresh berries, chocolate shavings, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.

Serve each slice of this Haute Cuisine Cheesecake on a pristine white plate to showcase its elegance. Accompany it with a dollop of lightly sweetened whipped cream and a sprinkle of grated dark chocolate for a touch of contrast.
