Enrobe with the crystallized Evocao™ chocolate.
Decorate with the caramelized cocoa nib sticks.

Component 2
Once the caramelized nibs are cooked, spread out on a Silpat to cool down.
Break them so they fall apart in individual pieces of caramelized nibs. Store them dry.

Spread out between 2 guitar sheets using a rolling pin.
Remove the upper guitar sheet directly to create an uneven texture.
Tap to flatten the chocolate and let it set.
Cut into small sticks: 5 x 35 mm.
Decorate with some green shimmer dust.
