6. Cacao Traveler (Set of 4)
"Chocolat(※)" is now available, made using three types of cacao beans that our roasters fell in love with. This ganache, which allows you to enjoy the rich flavor of craft chocolate made with carefully selected cacao origins, was developed in collaboration with a pastry chef, with consideration given to its compatibility with butter cookies. There are three varieties: "Ghana Milk," which seeks a balance of mellow sweetness and richness; "Colombia," which offers a gentle acidity and subtle bitterness; and "Dominican," which has a nutty aroma and light sweetness. This special chocolat brings out the unique characteristics of the cacao to the fullest, making it fun to compare the different varieties. (*) This is our most popular dessert, made with raw chocolate sandwiched between cookies.
