Raspberry Ocumare
The perfect combination. Some flavours were born to work with each other, like dark chocolate and raspberry. Sergi Vela has been inspired by this classic combination to create this delicious cake, in which brown sugar, rum, vanilla, Ocumare dark chocolate couverture, powdered almond and fresh raspberries create an exquisite set of flavours and nuances.
