Once the white chocolate was solid/firm, it was being cut as evenly as possible.

Some ganache chocolate were dipped with dark chocolate and topped with a nicely slice piece of candied orange.

All of our products plated.

Hello ladies ,

Thank you all for your determination and effort during yesterday’s production; Student chef Yvelys and I are greatful that everyone showed professionalism and finished all the products on time, even though not all of the teams were in attendance.   Like what Yvelys said, this week we are continuing to review and practice tempering chocolate. We also learned how to dip in candies in chocolate using dipping tools. Each team tempered chocolate and dipped the chocolate into their assigned recipes, such as: Almond Joy, Ganache Chocolate, Pistachio, and Hazelnut Marzipan Balls. The Almond Joy filling and the Mozart Kuglen was prepared the previous week we prepared the previous week. Here are some of the photos taken during production. Thank you once again and amazing team work!!
