What you’ll learn…
Simple Ingredients
We don’t use any fancy ingredients in this class. You can find all the ingredients at your local shop or online. These caramels are sweetened using all natural, unrefined sweeteners such as coconut sugar, maple syrup and honey.
Using Alcohol in Chocolates
Because alcohol is a liquid, there are specific ways to incorporate it into your chocolates without compromising the texture or making things more complex than they need to be. These caramel ganaches are a brilliant way to use alcohol of any kind (spirits and liquers) and retain the full flavour of the alcohol, while pairing it with matching flavours.
Changing The Shade
You can use any shade of chocolate in these caramels, which technically makes them a ganache. By changing the shade, you can pair them with various types of alcohols, sweeteners and fruit juices/reductions. There are a limitless number of ways to create new, exiting caramels from one simple base and technique.
Recipes you’ll receive beyond what is demonstrated in the class
- Mulled Wine Caramel – perfect for the Holiday season and beyond
- Amaretto Sour Caramel – this one demonstrates transferring a cocktail into a chocolate
- Spiced Gin Caramel – people love this one and it’s a good demonstration of using a strong spirit in chocolate
- Espresso Martini Caramel – this is my favourite of them all, but I do love coffee. Again, transferring a cocktail into chocolate
