Götterspeise. Heidelbeerkuvertüre
Drunter und drüber Frucht. Über eine Himbeercanache ergießt sich eine Schicht selbstgemachtes fruchtig-weiches Ananas-Marshmallow. Überzogen mit der neuen Heidelbeerkuvertüre von Zotter beweist diese Kreation, dass es sich auch mit irdischen Genüssen sehr gut leben lässt.

Jutta Scherer
