International Chocolate Awards - Silver

2018

Alkekengi by Slitti is a luxurious chocolate confection featuring physalis (cape gooseberry), a small, tangy fruit wrapped in a delicate papery husk. The fruit is paired with high-quality chocolate, which creates a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors.


The fruit’s natural sharpness contrasts beautifully with the smooth, rich chocolate coating, offering a unique and indulgent taste experience. The product is typically presented as individual bonbons, making it a sophisticated treat for those who appreciate both fruit and fine chocolate.
