Made these Sea Salt Caramels!

These are easy and hard to make at the same time because of the caramel, but I figured out that a thermometer helps a lot :)

Also sprinkled some flaky Maldon salt on top so they look pretty too.

Here's a YT video of the process if you want to try making them!

Lower sugar handmade white chocolate!

I have a few friends who absolutely hate white chocolate, but I feel like that’s because in a lot of bars, you can mostly taste the sugar, and all the cacao butter aroma is lost. Made these with more cacao butter and milk powder and it was pretty good!
Here’s a YT video of the whole process

Also wondering if anyone has found store-bought white chocolate that isn’t as sweet and has more cacao than average? I've had Lindt several times, but it was still a bit too much

Fresh Yuzu & Lemon Mousse Cakes

Wanted to make a fruit-shaped mousse cake for a while but thought it was outside of my skill level. However, it turned out to be not that bad at all! I’d say the most annoying part is waiting for the layers to freeze, otherwise, it could’ve been ready in a little more than an hour. I also used turmeric for the color and the shade of yellow was just right. I definitely suggest trying it if you want to replace artificial food dye.

I put the whole recipe and process in my YT video here! 
Hope you like it :)

Small batch Bean (nib) to Bar - whole process

I’ve had this melanger for a while and have made a couple of different types of chocolate. this time documented the whole process for making 75% dark chocolate on video. I hope it’s useful for those who were interested in how it’s made or wanted to make some themselves. Used marble for tempering and it was my most successful attempt so far!

Here's YT video link. Enjoy! :)

Gianduja is what inspired Nutella and Ferrero Rocher flavors, but it tastes soo much better homemade. Last weekend I got some hazelnuts and decided to try making it. It turned out pretty good :)

Here’s a YT video of the process!
