ingredients

preparation

1. Place the cream cheese ring on a plate.

2. Arrange pieces of apricot, cashew nuts, chocolate, and fresh coconut around the cream cheese.

Tips

The presentation of the appetisers around the cream cheese is important for the visual aspect and the flavour. Slice the apricot thinly to maximize the delicate, sweet-tart flavour against the creaminess of the cheese. This also makes it easier to eat in a single bite with the crackers and cheese. Thinly slice or shave the coconut to ensure that every bite includes a harmonious blend of flavours and textures.

Tips

Choose high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70 %. Dark chocolate adds a rich, intense flavour that contrasts beautifully with the tangy lime and sweet coconut in the cream cheese. Break the chocolate into small, bite-sized pieces for easy sharing.
