This is what caviar dreams are made of right here! It was buttery, nutty and oh so smooth. We paired it with champagne and there is not another pairing so perfect. I tried to order more for New Years but it was out of stock. That is a testament to just how good this is.
Sent as a gift. Was loved and appreciated.
