Candlenut’s dessert take on Buah Keluak (Truffle of the east)
.
A scoop of Buah Keluak ice-cream is mixed with 80% Valhrona chocolate, served on a bed of salted caramel, chocolate crumble and chilli specks. And then topped with warm milk chocolate espuma
.
The buah keluak ice-cream itself has an nice interesting combination flavours of bitterness, earthiness and a tinge of sourness
.
After mixing it with the salty sweet caramel, smooth warm milk chocolate espuma, chili specks and chocolate crumble, it produce a nice harmony of bitter, salty, sweet, sour and spicy flavours
.
But when the chocolate coated pop rocks touch my mouth and started to pop non-stop like a mini firework, it made my mouth feel like a theatrical orchestra and managed to uplift the existing bitter-salty-sweet-sour-spicy flavours
