Pineapple Tart Caramelised Chocolate

A pineapple tart, reimagined one chocolate square at a time. Fossa’s Pineapple Tart Caramelised Chocolate combines a creamy caramelised base with dehydrated pineapple and biscuit pieces, bringing fruit and pastry-like crunch into the same bite. Cocoa butter and milk powder form the chocolate base, while the biscuit gives the pineapple something buttery and familiar to play against.

Pineapple tarts are a favourite festive treat in Singapore, especially around Lunar New Year, when their golden fruit filling carries associations of prosperity and good fortune. This Singapore-made bar takes that familiar combination of pineapple and crumbly pastry in a different direction: the inspiration of a tart, without needing a plate and fork.

Break off a piece with afternoon coffee or an unsweetened black tea, or serve a few squares alongside fresh fruit after dinner. For a small dessert board, add shortbread and toasted nuts; for a sweet-and-savoury pairing, try a little aged cheddar.
