Delicately pipe one cannoli with the cream cheese delight filling and the other with pre-prepared chocolate mousse. 3. Arrange the two filled cannoli: one leaning gently on the other. Garnish with raspberry coulis, assorted wild berries, a piece of chocolate, a mint leaf, icing sugar and crushed roasted pecan nuts. 4. Place a nice big scoop of butter pecan ice cream next to the dessert, drizzle with a little melted caramel and a grate of orange zest.
