This luxurious flavour and scent is enough to melt your heart.

The limited edition chocolate includes the almond feuilletine, which contains crispy feuilletine pastry pieces and a smooth, velvety almond praline filling wrapped in milk chocolate. The chocolate is then decorated with white lines. The collection also includes the “raspberry orange”, which is a fresh raspberry and orange ganache chocolate that is covered in dark chocolate.
