As you bite into Juliette’s dark eye, all the fresh flavours of Spring are released. The lily of the valley ganache melts in the mouth and brings the taste buds to life.

The homogeneity of the pine nut-based filling depends on a precise balance between the cocoa butter and the nut. Its crisp, pronounced flavour recalls that of the almond.

The taste buds come to life as they make contact with this blend of hazelnut paste and flower nectar, offset by a coating of dark chocolate. The surface texture of the chocolate recalls that of very tightly woven thread.

The clothing don’t make the praline!  Candied ginger enhances the ganache and gives it a slightly tangy and fruity taste, which nicely contrasts with the bitterness of the chocolate fondant.
