Serving 4, this delicate dessert combines the softness of toffee with the fluffy texture of pudding to create a sweet and light effect. Each bite will transport you to a world of subtle flavors and subtle caramel notes. To take this fun to the next level, we recommend pairing it with our Pisco Mosto Verde Quebranta . This pisco with its rich and balanced character enhances the caramel flavor and perfectly complements the sweetness of the pudding.
