    Hi Erin! You gave me the courage to try rescuing chocolate covered cashews that were delivered on a 95° day - completely melted into the bottom of the container. So we re-melted them gently in the microwave, added chopped chocolate and stirred until 85°. Dropped by teaspoonfuls into tiny fluted cups - they are starting to firm up around the edges, waiting for final analysis. Thanks for the awesome videos!

    Another cost effective, high quality chocolate that tempers pretty easily - Trader Joe's Belgian chocolate slabs! $5 for a 1lb slab of high quality chocolate, and they have white, milk, semi-sweet, and dark. I don't work for Trader Joe's, I just needed a lot of chocolate to make hot cocoa bombs and found the quality and price point to be perfect!

Have to try it out! But Part 1 ended without showing the finished hazelnut marzipan! ...unless I missed something!! Also would love to see how the marzipan is molded into the metal hardware bar frame and cut!

I enjoy everyone of your videos and adding in the candy edition was a fabulous bonus to see. Your an awesome teacher. If someone can’t learn from your videos they will never learn.

    With the white and milk chocolate leaking could you possibly add powdered sugar or just a larger ratio of chocolate to corn syrup? I know when I make my fudge that I do have to add additional milk chocolate and almost have to double the white chocolate if I want it as firm set. That brand you cannot mention has those fruit-flavored ones, I know you would use white chocolate what would you do a different ratio and how would you prefer to do the fruit flavoring, I have a lot of those lorann oils for candy making

    Isn't "milk chocolate" made with milk "solids" (not milk "fat")? and that's why it's lighter in color? "Milk fat" is butter, no?

    • @lisahinton9682
      @lisahinton9682 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Ann Del Tredici
      Ghee is from milk fat. Butter has both the fat and the solids from milk. (It is the browning of the milk solids that gives you brown butter.) The point of comparing the different chocolates is that there are different amounts of each component in each chocolate. Except for baker's chocolate (and white chocolate, technically), there are the same components but in different percentages in each of milk or dark chocolates.

    Are you really not going to show a stovetop tempering method? Not everyone has a microwave, but anyone who wants to temper chocolate has a stove. Very frustrating to watch this long video with NO actual instruction for those of us without specialty small appliances.
