Hazelnut Dacquoise by Angela Field @patisseriemakesperfect

If you’ve never heard of a hazelnut dacquoise, you’re missing out! A slightly more rustic version of a macaroon, they have a cake-like crunch and chewiness and a lovely, nutty flavour. Topped with Guylian’s hazelnut praliné Sea Shells, it’s hazelnut heaven!

NB: The full recipe can be found in the Notes to Editors section.

Illusion Sandwiches by Dominic Franks @dominthekitchen

Perfect for parties or picnics, these lovely illusion sandwiches (cakes that look like sandwiches) are decorated with a Guylian Sea Shell for a finishing touch. They’re so scrumptious, they’re likely to disappear in an instant!
