we've been working with chocolate the last two weeks in school. there is a process called tempering that one must do to get the set, snap, & shine you want in chocolate. more than you wanted to know already?
everything in these pictures is made of chocolate. seriously, everything. {except the cardboard or parchment paper they are sitting on.}
first up, truffles & a chocolate bowl!
{white chocolate + fruity pebbles bowl}
my friend, jess, made me a lemon birthday cake!!! it was fabulous. & i know my lemon cakes.
next up, the small chocolate figurine. i, shockingly, went with a bird!
{white chocolate with gold cocoa powder}
{the entire class's chocolate figurines!
my favorite is the owl on the left. so cute!}
& then the chocolate showpiece. as i mentioned {here}, the theme is springtime in paris. so obviously i went with the fleur de lis.
the fleur de lis is dark chocolate couveture. the flowers are white chocolate. the base is rock chocolate. & my favorite is the white chocolate + green cocoa butter piped tubes. a task. but i'm a little proud.
happy friday, friends! we are starting sugar work tonight. so definitely a happy friday for me. 3 weeks, 1 day.
love love,
kjp.
Those are absolutely awesome! You must be having the time of your life!!! It is so fun to have you share all of this with us, we are living vicariously :)
