The Swiss name for these tartlets might imply that they are adapted from an Ecuadorian recipe, but I think the name must derive from a brand or type of chocolate using South American cocoa beans. The tartlets are fairly simple to prepare, though they never fail to impress. They are part of an amazing array of tiny tartlets and other pastry-based confections the Swiss refer to as Konfekt, or confections. You’ll find little pastries like these in any good-quality pastry shop in Switzer
