Just So You Know, You Can Now Buy A Chocolate Pine Cone Dusted With Gold

Katie Mythen-Lynch

Move over sherry trifle, the boom is back and this year we want our dessert sprinkled with gold.

Marks & Spencer have unveiled the dessert that everybody will be eager to get their hands on this Christmas: Chocolate pine cones stuffed with more chocolate.

These creamy chocolate mousses with a chocolate truffle centre are dusted with edible gold lustre and shaped into wintery pine cones.

At €19 for six they’re on the pricey end of the scale when it comes to sweet treats, but they will also free up that time you usually spend in the kitchen layering custard and fruity jelly, allowing you to sip a mulled wine in front of The Wizard of Oz instead.

The best bit? There’s zero prep involved. All you have to do is serve them with a big jug of cream for drizzling.
