Chocolate bar mold - Application

Preparation

For all molds used to pour chocolate molds, preparation is extremely important. Rinse the mold with lukewarm water and a gentle rinsing agent. This must not contain lye or shine rinsing agent, as this would attack the molds. Then rinse off all residues with lukewarm water and dry the mold very well. From now on, do not touch the mold recesses, otherwise fingerprints will be visible on the chocolate later. Polish the mold with a non-fibrous absorbent cotton or a very fine handkerchief.

You should only use high quality tempered couverture to make chocolate bars. Chocolate from the supermarket does not become liquid enough and does not otherwise produce the desired quality. To Temper it is best to use a Temperature control unit, However, you can also make a water bath. Be careful that in no case water gets into the chocolate. This would make it crumbly and lumpy.

Pouring

Ingredients such as hazelnuts, almonds, cocoa nibs or freeze-dried fruit can now be sprinkled into the mold as desired. Then fill in the melted couverture. To do this, you can use just one color of couverture or pour half with light couverture and half with dark couverture. You can then use a toothpick or wooden stick to draw little swirls and patterns into the chocolates. To get rid of any air pockets, gently tap the mold on the table.

Then you can decorate the chocolate bar as you wish. For example, add a few sugar sprinkles, smarties, cocoa nibs or crunchy pearls to the couverture. Then place the mold in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes. Afterwards, you can add some lettering to the chocolate bar. To do this, use a cornet with the tip cut off and a little writing chocolate. The inscribed chocolate is again briefly cooled.

Finally, the panels are formed. To do this, bend the mold slightly and then quickly turn it onto a clean surface. This way, the tablets come off quite easily. The finished bars can then be placed in a small bag or other suitable packaging. So they are good to give away or store.
