Cut the puff pastry into rectangles, sprinkle with icing sugar bake in the oven between two baking sheets at 180°C until caramelized.

Make the tangerine mousse:

Mark a sabayon (eggs+icing sugar+mandarin juice+blanched zests+gelatin) and stir in the butter off the heat, cool, whip the cream and add to the mixture to lighten it.

Make the crystallized petals:separate the mandarin segments, drizzle them in syrup flavored with Sechuan pepper, dry in the oven at 80°C.
