30 minutes

Raisin marzipan candies in white chocolate are an exquisite delicacy of French cuisine, combining the tenderness of marzipan, the richness of rum, and the sweetness of white chocolate. Their history begins in the tradition of European confectionery art, where marzipan was valued for its refined texture and almond flavor. Rum-soaked raisins add a piquancy that gives the candies a special depth of flavor. The double coating of white chocolate creates a perfectly smooth glaze that melts in your mouth. These candies are a true delight for gourmets, perfectly suited to a cup of strong coffee or as an elegant treat for a festive evening. They are not only aesthetic but also reveal a richness of flavors where sweetness, bitterness, and tenderness harmoniously intertwine.
