Beautiful bonbons! Thanks for the informative, detailed videos. I am wondering why you didn't mention the essential step that the chocolate has to be tempered before pouring into the mold?
Hi Laura, Good point! I guess I just assumed everyone has watched enough of my videos where I do mention that. I also have videos showing you how to temper chocolate. Yup, that chocolate was tempered. Many people don't know how to temper, and it is possible to get the chocolate out of those moulds if you freeze the moulds before you try to get them out. That said, you're right, I should have mentioned that.
Hello Bharat, yes, you will want to store these at room temperature. Do *not* store these in your fridge, as condensation will appear on the chocolate ( water spots ) Keep in a dry cool place.

AAACK! Awesome! The first time I made caramel worked perfectly...haven't been able to get it right since then. Every time I add the cream it crystalizes up. I will keep trying tho until I crack that nut!
Hi Mary, good luck next time and thanks for watching ! Crystallization is a thing that happens easily, and without using corn syrup, it does make some not want to try it again. Using corn syrup in caramel is method that cancels out the crystals, but also changes the taste, and just isn't genuine in caramel. I never use it, and I just don't even like the thought of using it. That said --- SOLUTIONS: ---> you can use a silicone brush, - dip it on water, and brush the sides of your caramel as it is boiling. Another really good trick which I should record on video is putting a lid on the pot as it boils. Take a brush, paint the sides of the pot with water from your brush. Now - close the lid... this will keep the steam from leaving the pot, and the steam inside will magically melt the crystals. - it works like magic ! I hope this helps you a little bit. Please keep the lid trick in mind. So basically you paint the inside of the pot with water... close the lid as the caramel is heating in the last stages... and then remove the lid.... you don't have to keep it on for a long time, a minute or less is good enough. If you still see crystals, repeat the process. Thanks for watching Mary !
@@BakeLikeAPro All great advice! I also make cut caramels but like you I dont want that texture in a sauce so no corn syrup for me either. I've used the brush technique many times but its a traditional pastry brush (wood handle type)...woner if that might be part of my problem. Will be trying the cover method next attempt! I was told once to squeeze a bit of lemon juice in...havent tried yet as it just seems like it would impart a very strange taste...
As soon as *hot* water comes in contact with the mold, it removes any chocolate that may still be on the mold. A gentle wash with a soft brush will do a great job. It takes no more than 2 minutes to clean this perfectly. A soft brush is a must. Do not use anything that can scratch the mold and you will have a mold that lasts for a long time. This is a professional chocolate mold that chocolatiers use world wide.
Hand wash with a very soft brush, or use a soft wash cloth. Never use anything metal, (metal brush ) and be careful not to scratch the mold. Use HOT water to help melt away any chocolate that is in the mold. ( never use cold water ) . When you wish to use your mold the next time, always buff the mold with a very soft brush. This allows your chocolate to be very shiny with your next batch of chocolates.
Hi, I have a specific query. I had some left over chocolate about 200 gms, in a pyrex mug, which hardened overnight. I re melted it in the microwave but it was too thick, and so i mixed about 2 tbsp warm cream in it. Then I did the first chocolate coat in the acrylic shells and cooled them in the fridge. Then I filled caramel in them and then closed the shells. I would like to add however, that my chocolate was thicker than the one shown by you in the video. They've been in the freezer for 45 mins and are still a bit soft on touching. I want to know if the addition of cream means that they will not harden? Or should I give them another couple of hours? (I won't be able to demould them if they're soft, that's for sure 😔)
Hi Rina, you are right, the addition of cream means your chocolate will not harden like you want it to for the outer shell of the chocolate. However - if you add a bit more cream, and mix it, you will have amazing chocolate ganache. I have many videos showing you how to make this, and it's excellent for the filling of your chocolates ! 🙂👍
Thanks. I suppose I will need to just scoop out the current lot from the moulds. Will go through the links for the ganache. Will also look at your link for tempered chocolate for making good chocolate shells, so this error is not repeated.
I'm just using the standard fridge that everyone uses in North America. Nothing special about it. It is about 6 feet tall aby 3 feet wide. Fridge temp is about 40 degrees which is considered "food safe" for food.
This is not a candy mold, it's a professional chocolate mold, you can find this at all chocolatier supply stores. Even Amazon sells these. They are about $40 a piece.
I am ever so sorry you taught me to make homemade caramel. Took me a few times to perfect it. Now I'm hopelessly addicted. My worst came when I made homemade tortilla spread with Nutella, YOUR caramel sauce, crushed salted nuts and rolled it up. Evil, Evil, Evil. I hope you're proud of yourself. lol :o)
Hi Tonithenightowl 🙂 Hahaha ! That's a great post you made ! Thanks for that, it made me smile ! If you love caramel, I have so many more caramel videos for chocolates like this one. I also have many different caramel videos too ( how to make caramel ) anyway, thank you so much for watching ! and yes, once you get how to make caramel, you just realize that it's so much better than anything you can get in the store ( full of chemicals ) Thanks again for watching !

Would you let me know which of your caramel recipes you used for this video? That is the consistency I am looking for but not sure which of your recipes I should use. Thank you!
Hi Susan, the caramel recipe I used is the first caramel video I posted several years ago. In the end, they are all almost the same, the real difference is how much / how long your heat your caramel, as this changes the colour of it. I provide 2 links to caramel recipes in the description box for you too.

Hi Diana, Thanksgiving for Canada was about a month ago, so no holiday here, but thank you for the sentiment ! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family ! and thank you for watching ! 😊
A long time, you could have these for a month. Caramel does not go bad, ( out of the fridge ) and the chocolate will last basically forever. Thanks so much for watching ! 😊
Hi Lala, I temper all my chocolate, but if you do not know how to do it, you need to really chill your chocolate well after it is in the mould. Also, when you touch un-tempered chocolate it will melt in less than a second on your fingers. I have tutorials on my channel here on UA-cam showing you how to temper chocolate.
Yuppers, I temper all my chocolate. If you don't you will have terrible chocolates. You may watch some of my chocolate tempering videos here on UA-cam, also watch me using my chocolate tempering machine too if you wish.
Hi Brenda ! 🙂 2 great brands. Callebaut and Valrhona. Those 2 brands are what professionals use. I don't use anything else. Expensive, but THE best chocolate you can get your hands on. Buy it in original bags, don't buy from a suppler that sells it in a no-name bag, or you don't have a clue what you're really getting.
Wait? How did you get from one side of the table to the other? LOL was someone else helping you pour the chocolate into the mold? Or you’re super fast LOL

I'm using a very high quality chocolate from Belgium, Callebaut brand. No... you never waste chocolate, it goes back into the chocolate tempering machine right after. Chocolate like this is $, so never waste it.
Did you use good quality chocolate ? and did you temper your chocolate ? You don't say, so with zero info from you, there's not much I can do but ask you a few questions. I have many other chocolate videos here, you will get much more info about chocolate in them. Don't give up ! - you can do it ! and.. watch my videos on how to temper chocolate, you'll learn a lot.
@@BakeLikeAProThank you for your reply. I used cheap plain (dark) chocolate. I live in England and it cost 30p for a 100g bar. I used 5 bars. It is the same chocolate I use for every baking project I do. I slowly melted the chocolate in a bain marie. I filled two moulds - one with a salted caramel and the other with a raspberry ganache. They all stuck in the moulds.
Hi there 30p is about 51 cent in Canada. For 100 grams of chocolate that is extremely cheap indeed. You won't get real chocolate here for that price. If I buy a 100 gram chocolate bar, it's more in the neighbourhood of $3.50 or so. You are far better off to buy chocolate chips, or a bag of higher quality dark chocolate for example. ( Callebaut brand is easily found in the U.K. ) Check the cocoa content on your chocolate, and see what it is for fun. High quality chocolate melts with very little heat introduced to it, - like in a bowl over a pot of simmering water. Tempering - this makes the chocolate shiny, and very brittle like, it has a snap to it. Now - if you are having trouble with your chocolate, put your mould into the freezer, ( most freezers in the kitchen are about -20 degrees C or so ) so left in there for 10 minutes will do the trick. When you invert your mould, and tap it on the counter, those chocolates should just pop out - even with the chocolate you are using, but this also depends on the type of mould you are using too.
Hmm, I see you edited your comment since I read it. So I may have misunderstood what you meant - so you filled your chocolate moulds with caramel, and the other with raspberry ganache ? but did *NOT* create a shell of dark chocolate first ? .. and then pour in the caramel ? or the raspberry ? -- so you were trying to create chocolate these shapes, and then were going to perhaps pour your dark chocolate over the shapes ? ... if this is true, then yes, the caramel and the raspberry would stick the moulds without quesiton, unless very very frozen when you tried to get them out of your moulds.

What is the shelf life of these chocolates without fridge
A long time, you could have these for a month. Caramel does not go bad, ( out of the fridge ) and the chocolate will last basically forever. Thanks so much for watching ! 😊
Wonderful 👌👌👌😋😋😋God bless u 😊

Hello, do you need to temper the chocolate?
Hi Lala, I temper all my chocolate, but if you do not know how to do it, you need to really chill your chocolate well after it is in the mould. Also, when you touch un-tempered chocolate it will melt in less than a second on your fingers. I have tutorials on my channel here on UA-cam showing you how to temper chocolate.
Did you temper the chocolate before filling the tray?
Yuppers, I temper all my chocolate. If you don't you will have terrible chocolates. You may watch some of my chocolate tempering videos here on UA-cam, also watch me using my chocolate tempering machine too if you wish.
BakeLikeAPro I thought you had as the chocs dropped out the mould so easily, but thought I’d check! Thanks
What is "good, quality" chocolate? Thank you
Hi Brenda ! 🙂 2 great brands. Callebaut and Valrhona. Those 2 brands are what professionals use. I don't use anything else. Expensive, but THE best chocolate you can get your hands on. Buy it in original bags, don't buy from a suppler that sells it in a no-name bag, or you don't have a clue what you're really getting.
Love ti somuch miss

Hello, I do not make this chocolate, I purchase it in large bags.

I'm not at home right now, but I do show the big bag of chocolate from Callebaut in many of my other chocolate videos.

Ahh, yes, I was not on that video, we made a comment on the video LOL. He's an amazing kid, he deserves many more views than he has.
Wait? How did you get from one side of the table to the other? LOL was someone else helping you pour the chocolate into the mold? Or you’re super fast LOL

Did u just waste the chocolate which was on silicone mat
I'm using a very high quality chocolate from Belgium, Callebaut brand. No... you never waste chocolate, it goes back into the chocolate tempering machine right after. Chocolate like this is $, so never waste it.
@@BakeLikeAPro thank God.... I thought u wasted it...
Your chocolates just pop out. I tried to make chocolates today but they would not come out of the moulds.
Did you use good quality chocolate ? and did you temper your chocolate ? You don't say, so with zero info from you, there's not much I can do but ask you a few questions. I have many other chocolate videos here, you will get much more info about chocolate in them. Don't give up ! - you can do it ! and.. watch my videos on how to temper chocolate, you'll learn a lot.
@@BakeLikeAProThank you for your reply. I used cheap plain (dark) chocolate. I live in England and it cost 30p for a 100g bar. I used 5 bars. It is the same chocolate I use for every baking project I do. I slowly melted the chocolate in a bain marie. I filled two moulds - one with a salted caramel and the other with a raspberry ganache. They all stuck in the moulds.
Hi there 30p is about 51 cent in Canada. For 100 grams of chocolate that is extremely cheap indeed. You won't get real chocolate here for that price. If I buy a 100 gram chocolate bar, it's more in the neighbourhood of $3.50 or so. You are far better off to buy chocolate chips, or a bag of higher quality dark chocolate for example. ( Callebaut brand is easily found in the U.K. ) Check the cocoa content on your chocolate, and see what it is for fun. High quality chocolate melts with very little heat introduced to it, - like in a bowl over a pot of simmering water. Tempering - this makes the chocolate shiny, and very brittle like, it has a snap to it. Now - if you are having trouble with your chocolate, put your mould into the freezer, ( most freezers in the kitchen are about -20 degrees C or so ) so left in there for 10 minutes will do the trick. When you invert your mould, and tap it on the counter, those chocolates should just pop out - even with the chocolate you are using, but this also depends on the type of mould you are using too.
Hmm, I see you edited your comment since I read it. So I may have misunderstood what you meant - so you filled your chocolate moulds with caramel, and the other with raspberry ganache ? but did *NOT* create a shell of dark chocolate first ? .. and then pour in the caramel ? or the raspberry ? -- so you were trying to create chocolate these shapes, and then were going to perhaps pour your dark chocolate over the shapes ? ... if this is true, then yes, the caramel and the raspberry would stick the moulds without quesiton, unless very very frozen when you tried to get them out of your moulds.
@@BakeLikeAPro I've just had a look, and the dark chocolate I used is 50% cocoa solids.
Could you fed ex them to me ?😄😃yummy!
haha ! Thank you for watching my video 👍😊 I'm glad you enjoyed it !
