S’mores & Rice Krispies Treats Mashup

What’s more legendary than a S’more? Well, a Rice Krispies Treats and S’mores mashup, of course.

They marry a Rice Krispies Treats base that’s both chewy and crunchy—the perfect texture to build on other flavors.

Then, Chef Melissa stacks it with a gorgeous Brown Butter Caramel and a Graham Cracker Duja (a sort of cookie butter) that’s a flavorful nod to that must-have campfire cookie.

Matcha, Rose, and Pistachio Mini Candy Bars

They look almost like petits fours, but Chef Melissa Coppel makes these Matcha, Rose, and Pistachio Mini Tarts only with chocolate.

With their perfectly-earthy matcha ganache, 80% homemade pistachio praliné, and Rice Krispies and pistachio crunch, these chocolate bites offer an incredible depth of flavor that’ll have you coming back for more. Plus, they have an amazing shelf life of over 60 days!

Do you want to enrobe them? Or do you prefer to leave them open?

Both options are perfect, as Chef Melissa teaches you how to infuse white chocolate with a fragrant rose tea to close your chocolate “tarts” (the perfect alternative to semispherical bonbons) if you don’t have an enrobing machine.

Künefe Candy Bars (Melissa Coppel’s Take on the Dubai Bar)

Chocolate, pistachios, and kataifi have taken over the world thanks to the Dubai bar!
 
But did you know that in 2019, Chef Melissa Coppel had already created a bonbon with a similar concept? She filled her chocolates with a kataifi pistachio praliné and a white chocolate orange blossom ganache.
 
The idea started with Künefe or Knafeh. The first time Chef Melissa tried this Middle-Eastern dessert (consisting of a soft cheese covered in crunchy kataifi layers that’s served hot with a scoop of ice cream and syrup), she was so fascinated that she had to make something with it!
 
Six years later, these Künefe candy bars take those same flavor notes to give Dubai bars a floral, unique touch.
