To stay as close as possible to nature and the origine of the flavours Chef Marike Van Beurden choose to go fully plantbased on this dessert, to bring out the intense cacao flavours even more. After tasting Evocao™ WholeFruit Chocolate for the first time, her mind told her straight away to pair it with one of her preferred flavours Elderflower, infusion made with freshly picked flowers in the forest behind Barcelona, and the intense flavour of Bergamot makes for me the perfect flavour pairing.
