"What if I am... A pastry chef?"

For the chocolate based ones, you can get pre-tempered chocolate melts that are super duper easy to work with for beginner chocolatiers - melt in a double boiler to the consistency desired for you project and you’re off! You can get them usually in milk dark or white chocolate - make sure they’re not candy melts, as that will end in disaster, doubly so if you try to use a microwave! A heat proof bowl on top of a pot of water works just as well

"Only pastry chefs knows"

Well, not anymore

[shaminakhtar]

You make it look so easy. I imagine these are actually very difficult to master. I find it simply fascinating.

[zurtsoo]

Summary: just put chocolate on whatever you find around the house

[sristisaha]

My mouth become watering, these unique types of dessert should be designed for Christmas and New Year or any birthday party, anniversary These chocolates surely make the special days more soooo

[lianoronha]

5 mins crafts would've been :
" can't use the comb to untangle ur hair? use it to make some delicious chocolate decorations instead " 😋

[adteo]

I love how he emphasizes "NEW COMB". I wonder what it tastes if it's a used one.

[angelavillanueva]

Im 9 years old and ive been baking since i was 5 and NEVER did any of those except the bubble wrap one, the butterfly and the stamp. Thank you for making me do baking even more.

[aparupabhattacharya]

These aren't desserts, they're pieces of art.

[tommoncrieff]

I love that it says NEW comb, just in case you rush upstairs!

The tricky part is getting the caramel to the precise temperature that makes shaping it possible.

And for chocolate none of that stuff works if it isn't in temper.

Getting the results you see in the video is the result of a lot of practice with fundamental skills like chocolate tempering. Then you can get creative with shaping it.

[ishaagrawal]

These are so cool. I would love to try them but I know the chocolate tempering and the perfect caramel are results of mastered skills and well practiced art.

[Braisin-Raisin]

That is all so gorgeous! Could watch this all day and admire the art and skill.

[valliarlette]

I am completely aware of how difficult it is to create your presentations, and yet you make it look so easy. Well done. I still want a stage in your kitchen:)

I wish you health and success, my chief
