Suzette Praline

The Suzette Praline combines smooth caramel notes with vibrant citrus flavours in a refined chocolate bonbon. Encased in a shell of CARMA® Milk Diama 39%, it features a rich caramel ganache infused with orange, lemon, passion fruit, and Grand Marnier, creating a balanced profile that is both bright and indulgent. 

Created by Chef Leon Krohn, this elegant bonbon showcases the harmony between creamy milk chocolate, caramelised sweetness, and fresh citrus notes. The result is a sophisticated praline with a long, aromatic finish and a distinctive festive character.
