Fine semi-sweet chocolate strands — the classic finish for a ganache-covered cake, a filled donut, or the rim of a dessert glass. Mona Lisa is Barry Callebaut's decoration house, and vermicelles are its most-used product for a reason: they stick where you press them and they do not bleed.
These are real chocolate rather than a compound sprinkle, so they melt on the tongue instead of dissolving into grit, and the flavour reads as chocolate rather than sugar.
Working notes
- Type: semi-sweet chocolate
- Format: 1 kg bag
- Shape: fine strands (vermicelli)
- Application: ready to use
How to use it
Press onto the sides of ganache-covered cakes and gateaux. Roll filled donuts and choux in them while the glaze is still tacky. Scatter over soft-serve, sundaes and milkshakes. Coat truffles for a textured finish. Line the base of a tart shell before filling.
The trick with sides: work while the ganache is set but not fully firm — roughly ten minutes after coating. Too early and they sink, too late and they will not hold.
Storage
Sealed, 12–20°C, dry and away from light. Humidity dulls the surface and makes them clump, so reseal after every use.
