I uploaded this recipe because there were no recipes for soft chocolate with details. This is a recipe that I learned at a cooking school. It is a recipe for the soft chocolate which pastry chefs use to make things like flowers and leaves to decorate cakes. I use this recipe often for birthday cakes, gifts or for Valentine's Day cake.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Chop up the chocolate and melt over a double boiler (about 50℃). The chocolate might separate if the temperature is too high.
* Step 2
Warm the chocolate to the touch.
* Step 3
Combine syrup and mizuame in another bowl and warm over a double boiler [about 30℃].
* Step 4
Combine the warmed Steps 2 and 3 together.
* Step 5
Pour the mixture onto a parchment paper, place a plastic wrap to cover and chill thoroughly in the refrigerator. Let it sit for a day if possible.
* Step 6
Knead to evenly incorporate. Then it is ready.
* Step 7
Dust cocoa powder on your hands and shape like clay. You can also roll out the chocolate and cut out with cookie cutters Use melted chocolate as glue.
* Step 8
[For a rose] Place Step 6 on a new parchment paper and place a plastic wrap on. Roll out the chocolate to be thin [about 3 mm-to your liking].
* Step 9
Core =1 circle Flower petals = heart shape cookie cutters [or flower petals shapes] and cut out as needed. The amount of petals depends on the size of the flower.
* Step 10
Core = Cut the round shape into half, let them over lap each other and roll to the arrow direction.
* Step 11
Wrap and stick the petals to the core. Shape nicely depending on how the whole shape looks. Repeat this process and make your desired size.
* Step 12
This is made with core = 1 piece, and petals = 5 pieces.
* Step 13
The picture is for how it looks like form the side.
* Step 14
Cut off the excess.
* Step 15
The rose will look beautiful if you make the edges of the petal thin and wavy. The rose in the picture is pretty big. I used core = 1 pieces and petals = 8 pieces.
* Step 16
For spirals, spread out Step 6 on half of a parchment paper and make cuts.
* Step 17
Use the other half of the parchment paper and place the chocolate in between. Wrap the chocolate onto a rolling pin or a core of a plastic wrap, and let it chill.
* Step 18
Remove the parchment paper form the stick.
* Step 19
Remove the parchment paper form the chocolate. It's prone to cracking. Wrapping Step 17 to a stick is easier to make the spirals.
* Step 20
