Peanut, Caramel and Jade Entremet
A harmony of flavours. Salt emphasises its character and lives in perfect harmony with the sweetness of the caramel, Maragda couverture, peanut and a Jade glaze. On this occasion, Sergi Vela hasn't set out to surprise us with contrasting flavours, instead he has opted for a balanced, subtle entremet.
