All the ingredients arrived (well those that I needed to order). Looks like we’ll get started soon (today?)
1lb of Cacao seeds & 1lb of Cacao butter
It’s like a brick of soap…1lb fits in the hand!
I also got the basic molds that I wanted to use. Note that these are made of silicone. The more traditional ways use metal molds. The degustation that we had in Brugge was using hard plastic molds. This *should* make it easier to “peel” the chocolates.
The three types of molds.I call this one the “present” because they look like a box with an envelope top.I call this one the “flower bud” because they look like a flower bud about to open.I call this one the “motion” because they look like it’s still settling down.
