Hello,
Can you please help me as i am trying to make chocolate flowers. I have used the different type of chocolate as mentioned and both times when i pipe chocolate onto paper and cover with top sheet, my chocolate has hardened already and not able to place on rolling pin as chocolate has fell apart. I am obviously doing something wrong and your advise would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Tracy, you will need to work quickly and just do one row of petals at a time. Perhaps the bench you are working on is cooling the chocolate. Place a board under the paper so it creates a buffer between your chocolate and the cool bench.
Fantastic,l love to experiment and this is a lovely challenge,.

Hi Anne,
I tried the white chocolate flowers and the chocolate cake as well. it turned out exactly like you had shown and tasted awesome. Thanks for posting recipes that actually work and do what they are suppose to do. And also for showing techniques that actually work and that a novice can do. Love your work. Do you hold classes or demo’s? I would seriously consider flying from NZ to attend one of those. Thanks
Hi Zai thanks for your lovely feedback, I do not run any ‘live’ classes at this stage only online.

Hi Ann, I have a question . I use chocolate (melt). Every time I have it ready melted in my pipping bag not long after the chocolate will get harden so quickly, is there anyway I can melt the chocolate again without making a mess or throwing it out and make new ones????? Help 🙂 thanks
What type of chocolate did you use???
How beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

Could you specify how much chocolate you used for two flowers? Like in grams? I’m so excited to try this one out for my chocolate cake! Thank you so much, you and David Lebovitz are my chocolate idols! xoxo
Hi Angelina for two flowers you hardly need any because they are so thin if you melted 100g that should be plenty
thank you very much Ann for the tutorial…its very helpful to a begginers

Hi Ann
I tried this last night and it came out quite well. But not as good as you have done it. 🙁
