from the creator of the cronut®
“When we first imagined this dessert dumpling, I wanted to bring together two culinary worlds that have always inspired me. We drew on the creamy black sesame flavors so beloved in Chinese desserts and paired them with the luxurious richness of French chocolate. Imagine serving this at home for a unique dessert experience unlike any other. The whole family will soon want it to be a regular tradition.”

The Origin of Black Sesame
We set out to create a new kind of dumpling, inspired by the frequent use of black sesame in classic Chinese desserts like tang yuan and zhi ma hu. With the help of Chef Dominique’s boundless imagination, we landed on a black sesame lava filling, mixed with rich, sweet chocolate for good measure. The result? An innovative and indulgent dessert mixing authentic Chinese flavors with modern culinary influences.
