Chocolate Without Alcohol<Hotel Chocolat The Nice Slice – Valentines Edition

Take a bite and experience the inimitable alchemy of crispy, crunchy texture paired with velvety smooth praline. As the chocolate begins to melt in your mouth, the praline gives way, unleashing a flood of deeply nutty notes. The astonishing melt comes courtesy of the finest almonds and hazelnuts, ground until smooth and blended with 50% milk chocolate for a sublimely silky texture. A final pinch of sea salt lifts and complements the rich praline and ensures it’s not-too-sweet.

For the finishing touch, we lovingly press a flurry of Valentine’s chocolate hearts into the top of each Nice Slice, just as it begins to set. Cast in solid, mellow and malty caramel-milk chocolate, each heart is swirled with an enchanting pink marble hue – natural, of course.

Inspired by the wonderfully crispy chocolate fridge cakes our chocolatiers have fond memories of creating as children, the Nice Slice is the latest addition to our Patisserie chocolate profile. The recipe takes everything that makes those nostalgic fridge cakes special and dials them up to create a gloriously crispy texture, crammed with crunch, complemented by an unmistakable melt of high-quality chocolate.

Be it a generous gift for a chocolate lover, a special treat to share with a special someone, or a dessert for the whole family, The Nice Slice is a sophisticated (and deeply satisfying) way to share time together.

For optimal sliceability, we recommend storing your Nice Slice in the fridge for an hour before you’re ready to tuck in.
