PROTECTION
The snack is shaped like a veined outer shell of the cocoa pod. The sablé made only from vegetable ingredients is baked in a special silver-plated mould to the desired shape. In the Snack the Alto el Sol chocolate cremeux is mixed with agar-agar and coconut fat, covered with a slightly smoky Kappia pepper cream seasoned with red paprika. The next layer of the Snack is a vegan sponge cake topped with a raspberry gel.
The arched sablé-boat representing the cocoa bean is covered by chocolate mixed with grapeseed oil and scattered by cocoa nibs from the outside.
The half of the cocoa pod is closed form above by another layer of chocolate cremeux sprayed with vegan white chocolate velvety surface which evokes the seeds sitting in the fruit under the white protective membrane in the cocoa fruit.
The Snack has a recycled paper package that protect, support the quick and easy consumption and also educate the customer via a special code with augmented reality.
Cocoa is one of those treasures which may soon disappear from our world if we exploit nature and do nothing. Chocolate is a gift that would leave a large emptiness around the world if it would be no longer accessible to people. I believe that together, with a broad collaboration we can turn the current difficult situation in a positive direction. I would like to present this philosophy both in my sculpture and all my desserts. Each of them has a message, a call to humanity to act together.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION has many aspects and many ways, like sustainability or creating less waste, reduction of noise and pollution, etc. It is no matter which way we choose, but we should keep going on it in our everyday life.
