Outer skin is an egg-shell thin layer of solid mozzarella, while the inside contains stracciatella and cream, giving it an unusual, soft texture. 

Pairing:  drizzled with a bit of honey or a few drops of Chambord Raspberry Liqueur, makes for a simple and satisfying desert; traditional Caprese Salad or a pizza topping.
