As a link between Orient and Occident, full of peps and twinkly, Nabi skillfully mixes yuzu and basil.
"Nabi" is a very fresh pastry, not too sweet and slightly sour. Yellow and green, it catches the eye. The pastry is clear and precise.

The entremets is made of smooth lemon shortbread topped by a light yogurt mousse. The heart is made of a yuzu/basil insert and once in the mouth, you get an explosion of flavors.
The few white chocolate and basil leaves topping it are the last gourmet touch of the cake.

You can’t miss it if you want to get a gustative experience and the “new shiver” so coveted by Nabis!
