Strawberry and Chocolate Parfait

This parfait makes generous use of seasonal strawberries at their peak deliciousness, featuring them fresh as well as in marinades and sauces. These are paired with chocolates of various flavors including sweet, bitter, and ruby varieties. Beyond the sweet and tart strawberry notes, the parfait includes layers with pleasant acidity such as a fruity jelly made from rare cacao pulp (which can only be harvested in small quantities from a single cacao pod) and groseille confiture. These acidic layers add accent to the overall flavor profile. Two types of sauces—vanilla and framboise—can be drizzled to taste, allowing you to enjoy changing flavors until the last bite. This reward-worthy dessert offers sensory delight through its elegantly decorated appearance and expressive textures that evolve with each spoonful.
