Entremet and Petite Gateaux

Entremet is a french word literally meaning "between servings". But for our purposes it is a mousse based dessert with multiple layers, similar to cake. Petite gateaux is also french meaning "little cakes" and is just a smaller sized entremet. Here are my designs from class.
