The Five Flavors

Almond Jasmine
Italian almond paste paired with the gorgeous fragrance of jasmine creates a special moment. Carefully caramelized almonds add depth and texture, offering a delicate and enveloping finish.
Raspberry Pink Pepper
Vivid acidic raspberry meets the delicate spice and warmth of pink pepper, creating harmony and a refined contrast. This praline presents a bold and memorable flavor.
Pistachio Orange Pepper
The rich body of Sicilian Bronte pistachio blends smoothly with white chocolate, while caramelized orange peel adds sparkle. White pepper's powerful stimulation tightens the palate, finishing with a sophisticated and profound taste.
Strawberry Star Anise
The elegant sweetness of strawberry layers with the rich aromas of star anise, Tahitian vanilla, and tonka beans. The delicate accent of Japanese lemon leaf spreads throughout, with refined aromas lingering beautifully through the finish.
Lemon Cardamom
White chocolate layered with the freshness of lemon leaf and the warm aroma of cardamom, enhanced with fresh lemon peel for depth. Radiant freshness spreads, with a refreshing aftertaste that further elevates the flavor.
