Bring the espresso, sugar, Cream Plus Mascarpone, and milk to a boil.

Pipe a circle of the tiramisu cream next to it. 

Fill the cavity with a dollop of the coffee crémeux. 

Place a circle of caramelised filo pastry on top and press down lightly. 

Repeat this operation eight times until you have an attractive millefeuille. 

Sprinkle the dried tiramisu powder liberally over the millefeuille.
