DOTS

"DOTS are boutique pralines created by Katarzyna Malczewska, a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in the field of architecture. Her sweet works show artistic influences, her chocolates stand out with graphic patterns and strong colors. "I make small individual chocolates, then combine them into larger compositions, a bit like a painting," she says. However, we were most enchanted by the ganaches that Kasia makes. Her flavors are always balanced, matched to the type of chocolate, and at the same time incredibly intense, but not offensive. In some ganaches you can clearly feel the jasmine flower, in others Sichuan pepper. However, there is no overwhelming sweetness here, because Kasia does not use sugar. And she focuses on unusual, sometimes surprising combinations - flavors for adults, as she calls them, e.g. white chocolate with Roquefort cheese, goat cheese with caramelized pear, marzipan with chestnut, salted caramel or mango with chili. "I like watching someone close their eyes while trying my chocolates the most, or purrs - says Kasia. It's hard to be surprised by such reactions, because Dots are addictive! We are waiting for new cosmic flavors."
