Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Dark chocolate — Use high-quality dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa content for the best flavor. Avoid using chocolate chips, as they may contain stabilizers that affect the texture of the filling.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra touch of indulgence, sprinkle some powdered sugar on top of the assembled Neula con Chocolate before serving.
  • Experiment with different flavors by adding a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of vanilla extract to the chocolate filling.
  • If you prefer a lighter filling, you can substitute half of the heavy cream with whipped cream.

Serving advice

Neula con Chocolate is best served chilled. Arrange the wafers on a platter and garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder or a drizzle of melted chocolate for an elegant presentation.

Presentation advice

To create an eye-catching presentation, stack the Neula con Chocolate wafers in a pyramid shape on a dessert plate. Place a sprig of fresh mint or a few raspberries on top for a pop of color.
