Nama chocolate means raw, pure, or fresh chocolate in Japanese. It is a type of ganache created from melted cacao and fresh heavy cream. No baking is needed.
Upon achieving the precise flavour and consistency, the ganache is allowed to set in the chiller. The solidified confection is then hand-cut into cubes using a hot knife and dusted with fine cocoa powder.
While deceptively straightforward, the recipe demands a precise control of the moisture level. Slight deviations could result in a failure to set or a loss of the desirable silky texture.
Meticulously crafted using quality chocolate, the Nama Chocolate Collection is bound to tempt your palate with four alluring flavours.
