Now that Valentines Day is fast approaching and one of the favorite gifts we often give and receive are the Chocolates and of course who doesn’t want a beautiful bouquet of roses?? 😛 🙂 I got inspired lately from Pinterest and now I’m excited to make a delicious White, Milk & Dark bite-sized Chocolates! It’s a budget friendly recipe. So let’s start making these lovelies, it’s fun and super easy guys!
Makes : 24 pieces or 3 Plastic Container (8’s)
Ingredients:
Chocolate Base:
2 (35g) Dark Chocolate Bar
2 (35g) Milk Chocolate Bar
2 (35g) White Chocolate Bar
Toppings:
1 tbsp. Heart Sprinkles
1 tbsp. Tiny Dots Sprinkles
1 tbsp. Crushed Peanuts
2 tbsp. Mini-Marshmallows
You also need:
1 piece chocolate molder with 24 cavity or any similar molder
24 pcs. Paper Liners – small
3 pcs. Clear View Plastic Container or Board Box
3 pcs. Paper Belt or Logo Sticker for Negosyo (optional)
First, we need to prepare our toppings, we’re going to crushed some nuts and measure all toppings we want to use. (If you want to use dried fruits like mangoes, blueberries, cranberries, pomegranate or even golden raisin just cut them into tiny bits.)
In a chocolate molder, place desired topping in each cavity as thin as possible to create a single layer, coz’ too much toppings won’t stick in your chocolate later on. Fill each cavity with topping and when you’re done, set aside. (If you’re using a silicon mold, make sure to place it on a flat tray for an easy transport later on.)
There’s 2 Ways to melt your Chocolate: you can use the Bain Marie method “Double Boiler” or the quick and easy 30 seconds Microwave method, all you have to do is to heat it for 15 sec and stir and another 15 sec and stir until smooth and it’s ready. But, if you’re using the double boiler, make sure that your water is low and it’s not boiling. All you need is a slow and steady simmer, to melt your chocolate. Keep on stirring until becomes smooth and runny.
Carefully, spoon melted chocolate slowly in each cavity until you’re done with all your melted chocolate. Please place your molder in a flat surface or a tray, for even result and leave it to cool. Repeat process with the other chocolate bars.
Chill chocolates until hardens. In a tray, flip slowly and unmold each chocolate. Place individually in a small paper liners and arrange chocolates in mini- chocolate boxes or clear plastic containers.
Here’s Our Simple Ingredients:
Goya Chocolate Bars, Sprinkles, Peanuts and Mini-Marshmallows. Feel free to use any brand of chocolate bars. Of course the best quality chocolates are the imported ones, a bit pricey but it’s worth it. There’s also the cheaper ones with less chocolate content, comes in different colors, but high in sugar content, which I don’t like. And My favorite chocolate bars, which I often use in my recipes are Hershey’s and Goya Chocolates Bars, they are both affordable and good in quality.
For those who are interested in turning this recipe as your home/online business. Hmm.. why are you smiling back at me?? hehe… did the magic light bulb turned on?? 🙂 that’s great, I’m glad you like this idea. You can buy this Chocolate Molder at Portia Store – Bacolod Branch. I hope you can find one in your place. This Heart Shape Chocolate Molder is from “My Kitchen”, it has 24 heart cavity, with a (1.5×1.5x.5) size and 1 tablespoon capacity each.
