The Cheese and Chocolate Bar, Marina Bay Sands
Delicious in both taste and presentation, the Strawberry-Basil Truffle Pop at Marina Bay Sands’ scrumptious Cheese and Chocolate Bar is a fun, gourmet interpretation of our childhood sweetie; the lollipop. The signature dessert is hand-crafted by Executive Pastry Chef Ryan Witcher, where he carefully blends together wild strawberries, hand-picked basil and a smooth milk chocolate. It is then presented as a lollipop to make it more lighthearted, and as you pop the dessert into your mouth, the colourful chocolate on the outside melts away to reveal its sweet and savoury filling. The flavour of the strawberry is perfectly intense, while the undertone of the herby basil makes it more complex and grown-up – even if we don’t feel that way when we eat it. (www.marinabaysands.com)
