• While the syrup reaches its temperature, start whisking the egg whites : they have to be foamy. Once the syrup reaches 240°F, pour it in a thin stream on the egg whites while whisking.
  
• Then, whisk at high speed, until the bowl gets cold again (it can take around 10 minutes).
• Chop almonds + hazelnuts + pistachios.
  
• Whisk the cream to form whipped cream.
• Mix the whipped cream and the Italian meringue carefully.
  
• Add honey + dried fruits + almonds + hazelnuts + pistachios. Mix it all carefully.
• Pour into a mold covered with plastic foil. Freeze for 4 hours.
  
• Unmold and remove the plastic foil.
• There you are !
