To enjoy, simply remove the dessert from its packaging. It is best served chilled, so allow it to temper slightly at room temperature for a few minutes if it has been refrigerated for a long time. You can serve it as is, or for an extra touch of elegance, garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder, a few fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream. Its rich flavor profile also pairs well with a simple scoop of vanilla bean ice cream or a drizzle of extra caramel sauce.
