Eruption

level 3

Inspired by the Style Rebellion trend, Callebaut chef Philippe Vancayseele designed a gourmet still life that simply bursts with colours and flavours. But the real taste eruption happens when you make the iconoclastic piece of chocolate art come to life: let a torrent of creamy chocolate sauce flow down your miniature chocolate Vesuvius and cover your brightly coloured cigarette dough shells in intense dark chocolate taste. This is no ordinary plated dessert. This is a chocolate re-enactment of the Pompeii incident that will strike your customers and dinner guests with amazement.
