Chocolate Chestnut Pinecone – $5.79

Chocolate Chestnut Cream shaped as a Pinecone on a Praline Leaf

I will say this is one of the more unique counter service desserts we have encountered in our travels, and it’s just as pretty as it is interesting.

Another winner in the Flurry of Fun dessert lineup.
