Hi,
Hope this is in the right thread if not then please move
My mom is making a chocolate sledge for her country market. But she is having a major problem with her chocolate.
So I said I would ask here as I know a lot of Vine peeps do crafts and baking items
She made it a few years ago but never had any problems with the chocolate but this time its been a disaster. It has been brittle, if she has heated it more than once it has gone all gritty or it goes white and dull not shiny.
In the end she has made a mixture of Cadbury's milk chocolate and Dr Oetker 72% dark.
Its not as thick as usual but she had used just over 260g of chocolate on it.
This is what it looks like. Its meant to have two reindeer but they wont come out of the moulds properly.
Has anyone else had this problem or what chocolate do you use?
She has an ice cream tub full of unusable chocolate that needs chucking.
Thanks
