Tips and Techniques
How do you temper chocolate, fill a mold, pipe ganache, paint chocolates, unmold, fix mistakes and clean up after an afternoon splattering chocolate all over the place (and yourself)? Click on the drop-down menu for techniques as I know them, and as I learn them. It’s a work in progress, so if you don’t find what you’re looking for, contact me or wait impatiently because I’m posting new ones every day. And if you have any questions about specific techniques, post them here and if I don’t know the answer, I’ll hunt down someone who does. And if you already know how to make chocolates and read something heretical, outrageous or just plain dumb, add a comment and spare my readers from unnecessary disasters! This is the place for real chocolatiers to chime in!

Buying bulk chocolate helps me stay motivated! http://www.anoccasionalchocolate.com
