Yorkshire Dodger

Yorkshire Dodger

Level:
Difficult
My Mono concept needs to be easy to pick up and eat on the go. Growing up I used to love Jammy Dodgers, and I used the shape as inspiration for my creations. The sports hero I wanted to incorporate elements of a protein date bar I make in my company with healthy nutritional low sugar ingredients. The explorer I wanted to use exotic ingredients that people from my home town would not have come across. The hedonist, well that is me, caramel, hazelnuts and a beautiful ganache!
