How to make chocolate bon bon

Stéphane Bonnat is a maître-chocolatier from Bonnat chocolatier, one of the oldest most prestige chocolatiers in the world from Voiron, France. Thank u stéphane for the recipe.

Temper the chocolate by melting on double boiler. ( simmering water must not touch the bottom of the chocolate bowl).

Heat up the cream using low heat until you see light wisp of steam.

Stir and keep it in that temp for 3 minutes to get rid of moisture in he cream as much as possible.

Tip 💡 add the chocolate to hot cream not cream to chocolate. I add half at the time and keep stirring

Add another half. Be quick do it while the cream is hot. Tip 💡We need to use baking choco here as it contains less fat. This results in better quality less saturating bon bons.

Stir until really smooth.

Put in a container and put in the fridge to set.

Here's the set one. I left it in the fridge overnight. But 1 hr should do.

Put on some gloves, the messy bit is coming

Scoop out the set ganach

Roll into balls quickly. The heat from your hands can melt the ganach, so, be quick.

Dip into tempered milk chocolate.

Drop into the dry. You can use matcha powder, cocoa powder, shredded coconut or even sea salt for the job.

Coat them thru and left in there until set.

You can put everything on a plate and chill to set.

You can pour ganach into a tray and cut out into cubes or you can use praline cubes too.

Here're some decorating nuts and dried fruits.

Coat with chocolate and decorate.

Tip 💡 use plastic stretching over your plate gives you smooth drying surface for your chocolate.

Chill in the fridge for 10 mins.

Put everything in a box. There you have it chocolate bon bon for fund raising, gift, etc. cook share and enjoy! 💗💗💗
