CHOCOLATE BOWLS
Delicious and beautiful chocolate bowls to wow your guests! #Pascall #Chocolate
To make one bowl you need:
1 large balloon
Sellotape
1 medium sized bowl
200g Pascall dark or milk chocolate
200g CADBURY DREAM white chocolate
Baking paper
A sharp knife
A sweet filling of your choice, such as strawberries and cream.
Method
In two separate bowls melt the two kinds of chocolate over a pan of boiling water. Make sure that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Once the chocolate has melted, leave it to cool until it is around body temperature. Cooling the chocolate is very important as the balloon may pop if it’s too hot.
Blow up and tie the balloon at the size you like. Place the knotted end of the balloon inside an empty bowl and secure in place with Sellotape. Pour around a quarter to a third of the dark or milk chocolate onto the balloon followed by a quarter to a third of the white. Leave the chocolate to set. It is ready when the surface is solid enough to touch and no longer shiny. Continue to layer the chocolate onto the balloon, allowing it to set between applications – save about a quarter of the white chocolate to make the base of the bowl.
Pour on the final bit of white chocolate and then immediately flip the balloon over onto a piece of baking paper. Hold the balloon until the chocolate has set enough for you to take your hands away without the balloon moving. Leave it to set. Remove the bowl carefully. Deflate the balloon slowly and ensure to remove all of it.
Your bowl is ready to fill with anything you like!
