Madagascar ganache, nuts and forest fruit cake

This pastry recipe may require some advanced patisserie skills, but it's definitely worth trying. Haute patisserie surprises with a variety of flavours and textures that spoil the taste buds second after second. And at the same time, the flavours should complement each other in a wonderful harmony or an exciting contrast. For this recipe, Single Origin chocolate Madagascar plays the lead role and is paired with hazelnut, pistachio and forest fruit flavours.
