End of the world

A bonbon with hazelnut praline made using Alto el sol. The praline is enriched with Chia seeds, feuilletine, roasted buckwheat, dried ground seaweed and gomasio. The addition of a pate de fruit of sea buckthorn berries and oranges to the praline creates a perfect balance.

The black bonbon symbol stands for a planet that has perished, with dried leaves symbolising drought. Only the inside is still smouldering with an orange glow.
