This is the behind the scenes of the triumphs and failures of being a chocolatier.

Wow, okay, I waited awhile between posts!
I have been busy in the kitchen practicing profiteroles, pot de creme and french macarons. I also spent 2 weeks catching up after mother's day, but today I finally played. Experimented with flavors, one of the joys of my job! So, today was melt-a-ways. I had made peanut butter melt-a-ways, and was thinking of another kind. We have tried hazelnut and pistachio before. I didn't want to use another nut, so I did a Vietnamese cinnamon, cayenne and white pepper dark chocolate melt-a-way. Oh my goodness! I finally remembered to write down what I was doing (I have a habit of forgetting what I did, and the next batch isn't quite the same). I didn't have a picture of the new melt-a-way, but I have one of the PB melt-a-way. Right now it is a limited time only, but if it is popular, it will be a staple!

Arg! I needs to try this!! I just don't know if I can get down there soon (my schedule is a suckfest) and you'll probably be out of them when I come...but I will hope for the best.
