MY REVIEW
CHOC Chick and their famous slogan 'Love Chocolate? Make Chocolate!' have been hitting lots of press as of recently and for good reason! More and more people are discovering the amazing supercharge, superpower, super-health benefits of raw cacao and more and more people want to have a go at making their very own chocs!
"The new CHOC Chick Master kit is perfect for those who have discovered how easy making raw chocolate is and want to indulge in a range of raw chocolate recipes and share the love."
The pictured white and dark layers of chocolates are one of my creations in Seduced, using Choc Chick's cacao butter and cacao powder. You know I do love making my own chocolate and having the butter and powder as separate ingredients, I can always play with different chocolate intensities from white to milky to really dark chocolate, just by changing the proportions.
This kit has all the beautiful quality and basic ingredients you need to get started with your chocolate making and has enough in there to make around 80 individual raw chocolates or 6-8 chocolate bars (using plastic containers) and over 100 truffles! Also use it to create a bunch of recipes (included in the kit) such as raw chocolate cake, ice cream, chocolate mousse, fondue and chocolate cocktails (CHOCtails!)
