Another Great Book, Ordered mine just a minute ago....

Posted in: News & New Products Press

It is something like-Chocolates 3-How they last longer and taste stronger. I put a link on my site under "recommended books". Due a delay in its publication, the link was changed and likewise on amazon itself. I suggest checking in now and then because it should be sent by December-at least that is what they told me! It is a good price which I am sure will go up fast after pre orders.

Hi Clay, sure, here are a few of the photos! Btw I'd like to add the caveats I mentioned in y reply to Thomas: these are pictures of our guillotine when new. 2 years on it's still pretty much in daily usage and aging gracefully. If you are interested in one we'll have to check prices &availabilityagain (it's been 2 years...).

Sam -

Please post photos here on the ChocolateLife (there's a link below the comment box after you click reply where you can upload photos).. Or - you can create a photo album and link to the photo album.

If you share here, you won't be bombarded with lots of individual requests to send the photos.

Would love to see photos of what you've produced. I've been looking into ways to make the less expensively, too.

We were also reluctant to pay in the 4 digits (USD or Euro) and managed to source a decent quality guillotine from pretty much home made by a local supplier. Can supply photos, just send me a message if you're interested. 600 USD + shipment.

Thank you so much. But a $1000 bucks is a bit more than I expected.

Chocolate Wrappers

Posted in: Tech Help, Tips, Tricks, Techniques

Yes ultimately everthing bogs down to temperatures. This is just to add on an extra way of presentation which I do besides different colour foils.

We are in South Africa so I guess its foil, foil foil..... Such is life!

Chocolate Wrappers

Posted in: Tech Help, Tips, Tricks, Techniques

Yes you can wrap them in cel o phane sheets & bind the same on top with twisters(coloured wire)Chocolates look best when exposed but if you are located in a hot tropical place like India we are forced to wrap them.

Chocolate Wrappers

Posted in: Tech Help, Tips, Tricks, Techniques

Thanks for that. I do beleive i will stick to the conventional foil method. Possibly for a few reasons. That foil is associated with chocolate and its what people expect when unwrapping a bar. I guess there's no getting around it.... Thanks T

Chocolate Wrappers

Posted in: Tech Help, Tips, Tricks, Techniques

Like Deborah says, the wrapping that touches the food just has to be food safe.I think you should take another look at what is wrapping the chocolate. Can you reseal it? Is it easily torn or will there be issues when wrapping? Are you wrapping small or large quantities?I have received chocolate that has been not sealed properly on the inner seal due to mechanical problems during assembly. That is not a good process and inefficient. Many small batch chocolate makers simply hand wrap the chocolate in foil. Foil does not impart flavor on the food, but plastic can.
