Seeking inspiration for pairing...

So, I've got this really cool recipe in a book I got, and I really want to change it a bit to make it my own. The original is a teardrop shaped container made from white chocolate, filled with cranberry Bavarian cream and garnished with a chocolate rum sauce, cranberries and pistachio croquant.

Now, my idea is to use two of the containers (I have 2.5" acetate strips), and shape them into a yin-yang circle. I'd use a milk or dark chocolate for one and white chocolate for the other. With the cranberry Bavarian cream in the white shell, I need to come up with a flavor to fill the milk or dark chocolate half of the Yin-Yang. Putting dollop of whipped cream on top of the dark cream and a circle of the chocolate rum sauce on the cranberry cream will complete the look I'm trying to create here...

So, I'm looking for advice or inspiration as to what I should use to pair with the Cranberry Bavarian Cream. I'm thinking maybe orange in a dark chocolate Bavarian cream? Maybe pomegranate? I'm pretty new to all this, so any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks guys!

Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
