Wasp's Nest

Simplicity and great local ingredients - that's what Czech Pastry Chefs Eva Krejsová and Jiří Hochman are aiming for. With this in the back of their mind, they like to revisit some of the pastry classics. The Wasps Nest for example combines a sponge, a liqueur cream, bavarian cream and ganache into a delicious and playful dessert.
