Method

1

Bloom the gelatin in water and let it sit.

2

Put the cherries in a saucepan with sugar, bring to a simmer for a few minutes until the sugar dissolves completely, then strain off about 20-30 ml of syrup and set it aside for brushing the cake.

3

Mix the cornstarch with water and stir it into the pan with the cherries, stirring constantly—the confit will start to thicken.

4

Let the confit simmer with the cornstarch for a couple of minutes, then take it off the heat and let it cool slightly.

5

Melt the bloomed gelatin in short bursts in the microwave and fold it into the cherry mixture, stirring well.

6

Transfer the confit to a piping bag and refrigerate for a few hours to set.
