Chocolate Sphere Finally it's here... the chocolate sphere tutorial from the top of the instagram cake. Now some of you thought I'd filmed it at the same time as making the instagram cake, and that would have been smart, but I actually didn't, hence the delay. My two year old just dropped his day-time nap. Re-read ... »
Peering through the glass display cabinet at the chocolatier, I would have loved to buy all of them. I was struck by how expensive it was for one such truffle.

Without so much as a taste, we kissed Hello Kitty goodbye...
