A lemon that is a dessert
Frutta Realistica Lemon is a frozen pastry single portion that recreates a lemon with striking realism: an elongated shape, rounded tips and a yellow surface shaded with green. Each carton contains 6 pieces, approx. 650 g net. Behind the look of the fruit is a dessert based on white chocolate and cream with a lemon heart, designed to surprise guests at the end of a meal.
The dessert
Each piece sits on a gold scalloped base and is protected by a clear lid. The surface has a velvety, matt finish, just like the peel of a real lemon. Inside, white chocolate meets dairy cream and milk; at the centre is the lemon insert (20%), made with concentrated lemon and orange juice and natural lemon-lime and citrus flavourings, while the lemon crumble (10%), with biscuits and almonds, adds a crunchy note. A touch of lemon paste rounds off the citrus profile.
Ingredients and allergens
The main ingredients are white chocolate, lemon insert, dairy cream, lemon crumble, UHT semi-skimmed milk, sunflower seed oil, cocoa butter and food-grade gelatine. The label declares the following allergens: peanuts and products thereof; nuts and products thereof; milk and products thereof; mustard and products thereof; soybeans and products thereof; eggs and products thereof. Contains the colour E102 (tartrazine), which may have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children. The full ingredient list and nutritional values are shown in the specifications table.
How to serve
Take only the pieces you need out of the freezer and leave them at room temperature for about 2 hours, as indicated on the label. Once thawed and kept at +4 °C, the dessert stays unaltered for 2 days, so service can be prepared in advance and the pieces kept in a cold room or refrigerated display. Each portion is already finished and decorated and needs no further work: simply place it on a dessert plate and serve.
Ideal for
The realistic fruit shape surprises guests and makes this single portion an easy dessert to offer in restaurants, pizzerias, bars, hotels and catering services. It works as an end-of-meal dessert, on dessert buffets, at banquets and events, where the single portion ensures fast service and identical pieces every time. The carton of 6 pieces lets you thaw only what you need, and the other flavours of the Frutta Realistica line can be combined for a colourful dessert platter.
