• 1 pinch Maldon sea salt
• 80- 100g locally produced Kentish toffee liqueur( adjust to taste)

3. Return the pan to low heat and continue stirring until the caramel and cream are fully combined and smooth.
4. Remove from the heat and add the finely chopped blonde chocolate, stirring until it melts completely and forms a smooth ganache.
5. Add a pinch of Maldon sea salt to balance the natural bitterness and enhance the flavour.
6. Allow the mixture to cool slightly to around 35- 40 ° C, then stir in 80- 100g of Kentish toffee liqueur.
7. Leave the ganache to cool and set to the desired consistency.
