Why is this Iberian ham appetizer a hit on every table?
Iberian ham bonbons represent a bold, sophisticated culinary innovation that merges high-end pastry mastery with the star product of Spanish gastronomy. This creation is the work of renowned Canarian pastry chef Carmen Capote, who, after training at prestigious institutions like Le Cordon Bleu and cooking at the Élysée Palace for the French president, decided to apply her talent to a unique collaboration with the century-old curing house Monte Nevado.

The project came to life following the recognition of this Segovian company, whose ham was awarded best in Spain in 2025 by the Ministry of Agriculture—serving as the inspiration to craft these exclusive Iberian ham bonbons.
The crafting process involved a true display of technique and culinary alchemy, meticulously balancing noble fats to achieve harmony between the sweetness of fine chocolate and the savory, deep character of cured ham. These bites stand out not only for their surprising flavor profile, but also for a refined aesthetic worthy of the Real Madrid VIP box, where the chef also serves her creations.
This initiative aims to break away from conventional tastings, offering a transformative sensory experience that positions Iberian ham chocolates as a benchmark in modern avant-garde cuisine.
Thanks to technical research and Capote’s passion for premium ingredients, this groundbreaking pairing proves that combining seemingly opposite worlds can yield exceptional creations capable of winning over the most demanding palates—seamlessly blending Segovia’s ham-curing tradition with signature pastry innovation into a unique, unforgettable bite.
