Specially Selected Chocolate Coated Raspberries

What is it?

Whole raspberries frozen and then coated in chocolate, which is a different proposition to any ice cream in the freezer: there's no dairy base at all, just fruit and a shell. Freezing the fruit first is what makes it possible. A fresh raspberry is too soft and too wet to hold a chocolate coating, where a frozen one is firm enough to dip and cold enough to set the chocolate on contact. The result behaves like confectionery rather than dessert. The coating is white and dark chocolate, and the contrast the whole thing is built on is the shell cracking against fruit that stays frozen and sharp. Sold in a resealable bag rather than a tub.
