Croissant dough
After mixing all the ingredients, with the water at a base temperature of 44 °C, into the dough, let it rise overnight at a refrigerated temperature of 2-3℃.
Fold the dough and butter sheet into 1 x 3 and 1 x 4, then chill in a freezer at -7℃ for about 30 minutes.
Roll out and fold to the final thickness.
Let it rise at 27 °C for 2-3 hours.

Heat to 60℃ while stirring in a double boiler, then pour into a mixing bowl and whip with a whisk until it reaches 25℃ and cool.
Add coconut powder and mix by folding it up, then add rum and lime juice.
Fill a mold of 9cm x 30cm (for 12 pieces) with a 2cm height of mixture and freeze.
