Rich, creamy, soft, sumptuous, indulgent are just a few of the words that spring to mind when you think of Chocolate. The enchantment of chocolate has grown over the years, thanks to the ingenuity of today’s chocolate manufacturers. The selection of chocolate products available is overwhelming. Just to list a few, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, chocolate chips, chocolate vermicelli, quite apart from the large array of ready-made chocolate confections. You can spend several indulgent hours in the kitchen creating that perfect extravagant gateâu or pop into the kitchen to rustle up a cake or a batch of cookies for afternoon tea. I take great pride in preparing freshly baked treats for my loved ones and the fragrance of home baked delicacies is the most enticing of all. There is nothing quite as nice as home-made chocolates. There is a special charm in presenting fresh home-made chocolates which are not only cheaper but also healthier since the freshest and the best quality of ingredients available would naturally be used.Working with chocolate can be fun, but let me warn you that it can be a bit frustrating for a beginner. Like most hobbies, although it may be difficult at first, it is rewarding when you see that you have created something beautiful. There is no magic formula except to keep trying patiently and to follow all the instructions carefully. You will be pleasantly surprised with the results.
