How we make our chocolates
POLISH
First we polish our clean molds. chocolate reflects the surface that is it tempered to - the cleaner the mold, the shinier the bonbon
PAINT
Then we paint each mold, sometimes we hand paint with paint brushes and sponges, sometimes we use an airbrush for smooth even color coverage
SHELLING
After the cocoa butter “paint” dries, we fill the molds with plenty of chocolate, tap out any air bubbles, and then return any excess chocolate, leaving only a thin shell
FILLING
After the shells dry, we hand pipe our various fillings inside, leaving a little room at the top, and let set overnight
CAPPING
Once the fillings are set and crystallized, the bonbons are closed off, or capped, with more chocolate
CRACK OUT
After the chocolate cap has dried and sealed in the soft ganache or caramel filling, we can then reverse the mold and all of the bonbons will release from the mold, ready to be placed into the case
