Strawberry Heart Crystal Candy

Cast in a faceted heart mould with clean geometric edges, the Strawberry Heart is a deep, glossy red — somewhere between a rough-cut garnet and a ripe summer berry. The crystallised surface catches light differently at every angle, and the faceting gives it a solidity that looks almost too considered to be edible. The flavour is straightforward strawberry sweet, a little floral. The outer crust gives way cleanly, and the soft centre carries the flavour through to the finish. Simple done properly.
