Combine the milk and glucose syrup and bring to a scald.
Bloom the gelatin in cold water.
Dissolve the bloomed gelatin in milk.

MANDARIN MICRO CAKE
125g mandarin or tangerine juice
330g eggs
190g cake flour
140g sugar
1g salt
75g butter (melted)
1 ea mandarin zest
0.5g vanilla bean
Using a vita prep or similar blender, combine the mandarin juice, eggs, zest and vanilla bean.
Bring to a high enough speed to create a vortex and slowly add the sugar and salt.
Continue increasing the speed to maintain a strong vortex and slowly add the flour; blend very well.
Add the melted butter and blend until homogenous.
Strain the batter and load into a .5 liter siphon container. Charge with 2 chargers and shake vigorously.
To finish, shake the siphon, invert it, and deposit the cake batter into a microwave-safe container that has been lightly greased. Pyrex or ceramic is recommended and a general shape that is taller rather than wider is also recommended. It is possible to use disposable paper cups or similar, but be careful of molds that may be coated in wax or plastic.
