First time trying ever a quenelle, but I messed up on the texture of the ice cream since it was icier than the dairy based ones I've made which made it harder. A pandan leaf wouldve been nice if I could find one along with some black sesame seeds for contrast.

First off, a quinelle requires 2 spoons and has a three sided shape. The single spoon method is a rocher, and you need to temper out your ice cream before. I would use a spoon to push out a nest of rice and fill it with the components to build a dish instead of stuff just next to each other.
This is one of those dishes that I know tastes like heaven but needs help playing wise.
The ice cream needs to be tempered. That’s not a quenelle. Please look up YouTube how to vids. Agree leaf and sesame would be nice. The coco cream is puzzling to me a bit. Could you whip it into a whipped coconut cream? Can you make a black sesame ice cream? That would pop.
Black sesame seeds or something for contrast especially on the ice cream would be sick. Super cool looking though and seems delicious. I saved this to replicate
It may taste great, but this is about as unappealing of a plating as it gets. I would look at changing every aspect of this, from the color of the plate to how things are sliced etc…
