HÅKAN CHOCOLATIER

Kinetic Bombs

Engineered for impact. A delicate tempered shell that ruptures cleanly on contact, releasing a concentrated burst of caramel, fruit or ganache in one decisive mouthful.

A Raspberry Rosemary Kinetic Bomb: a round chocolate sphere coated in crushed deep-red raspberry, resting on a solid matte black background.

Raspberry Rosemary

Summer raspberry tempered with rosemary salt.

A Black Yuzu Kinetic Bomb: a glossy dark chocolate sphere topped with a sprinkle of black salt, resting on a solid matte black background.

Black Yuzu

Bright yuzu citrus in a dark chocolate shell with a whisper of real licorice root, finished with a sprinkle of Hawaiian black salt.

A Sour Soursop Kinetic Bomb: a round chocolate sphere with a sparkling sugar coating, resting on a solid matte black background.

Sour Soursop

A tropical fruit somewhere between mango and pineapple. Not remotely sour, which Håkan finds funny enough that he adds a tingle of sourness to the outside.

A Passionfruit Explosion Kinetic Bomb: a round chocolate sphere with a crunchy golden-green sugar coating, resting on a solid matte black background.

Passionfruit Explosion

Bite into it and the name explains itself.

A Kalamansi Cardamom Kinetic Bomb broken open, bright orange filling spilling from its chocolate shell beside a whole sphere, on a solid matte black background.

Kalamansi Cardamom

A dark shell that bursts with bright Kalamansi citrus and cardamom.

A Goat Cheese Kinetic Bomb: a small glossy dark chocolate sphere topped with flakes of sea salt, resting on a solid matte black background.

Goat Cheese

Not a French chèvre but Norwegian Gjetost: dense, rich, caramel. Salt side down!

A Crackling Sea Salt Caramel Kinetic Bomb: a round chocolate sphere coated in golden crunchy caramel pieces, resting on a solid matte black background.

Crackling Sea Salt Caramel

THE one that gets an audible reaction the first time.

How to eat themthe whole sphere in your mouth at once — that is the point. Where there is salt, rest it on your tongue a moment, salt side down, before you bite.

Made by hand in Beacon, New York.
