This knockout dessert was inspired by the legendary chocolate-caramel tart created by the equally legendary pastry chef Claudia Fleming. To impart citrus flavor, we used the syrup leftover from candying orange peel to make the caramel. A thick layer of chocolate ganache follows, and sprinklings of the candied zest and fleur de sel glimmer on top like encrusted jewels.
