Component 1 – Chocolate shell
Ingredients
500 gr. Vanini dark chocolate 72%
Method
Prepare the mould and fill to the brim with Vanini dark chocolate 72%. Lightly beat the mould with the base of the spatula to get the air out of the chocolate. Remove the excess and turn the mould upside down on a grid until the shell is completely crystalized.

10 gr. Salt
80 gr. Glucose
80 gr. Butter
160 gr. Vanini Aurum (Special Order)
60 gr. Dextrose
250 gr. Granulated sugar
Method
Heat cream, butter, dextrose, glucose and salt in the microwave. In a saucepan caramelize the sugar and decoct with the previously made mixture, wait for it to reach below 70 ° C and add the Vanini Aurum. Take back the mould (previously cooled) and fill half of it with the caramel, once cooled.

100 gr. Crunchy flakes (Special Order)

Mix together Fine TGT Hazelnut Praline, Hazelnut Paste, chopped Crunchy flakes and fine chopped hazelnuts.

Fill the other half of the mould with the mixture and, once crystallized, proceed by filling the mould with half of the hazelnut praline and close the snack with Vanini Dark Chocolate 72%. Gently beat the mould and cut the excess chocolate. Leave to crystallize at room temperature (18/22 ° C) for about 12/16 hours then unmould the snack.
