Prunes Dark Chocolate Dragees
Yes, prunes. Hear us out. Dried California plums coated in dark chocolate taste like sophisticated dates — naturally sweet, wine-dark, with caramel notes and a gentle chew that makes them endlessly satisfying. Nothing about digestive health here. Just really good dried fruit in really good dark chocolate.
Why Prunes Work
The fruit: California prunes are dried plums — chewy, jammy, naturally sweet, with a depth of flavour that comes from the drying process concentrating the sugars and fruit compounds. That complexity is what makes prunes a genuinely interesting dragee centre. The chocolate: Dark chocolate — deep cocoa, subtle fruit notes, a clean bitter finish — meets the dried fruit sweetness in a way that feels completely natural.
Prunes vs Dates
People who love date chocolates tend to love prune dragees. But prunes have something dates don't: a gentle tartness, a wine-like depth, and a slightly more complex flavour profile. If you've only ever thought of prunes as a health product, one of these will change your mind permanently.
The Dragee Difference
Each prune is coated in multiple layers of dark chocolate — not dipped once, but built up layer by layer until the shell snaps cleanly. The prune inside remains whole, chewy, and intensely flavoured through the process.
Perfect for: Gifting to people who appreciate natural sweetness · pairing with red wine or port · Diwali hampers · dessert tables · those who love date chocolate but want something different.
