Does anybody know of a good source to buy tonka beans? 

Thank you in advance!

F/S 15 Pallets Extra Fine Granulated Sugar


Posted in: Classifieds F/S or Wanted

I have 15 pallets of extra fine Mexican granulated sugar. Each pallet has 50 - 50# bags. I can sell the entire lot for $20 per bag plus shipping. I would also consider selling the sugar in a 1 pallet lot. The sugar is NOT certified organic nor is it certified vegan.

New Definitions for a New Year


Posted in: Opinion

I personally have found that the average person does not understand what bean-to-bar really means. Instead, I started using the phrase bean-to-chocolate, which was originally coined by Callebaut. It works and people seem to grasp the concept better.

Food Engineering Courses


Posted in: News & New Product Press

The University of Wisconsin - Madison offers six different self-study food engineering courses. Four of the classes are for sugar confections and two for chocolates. The prices are reasonable and it appears anybody can enroll as they are for professional development. Just thought I would share. Here is the link:

Easyfill Depositing Machine


Posted in: Tech Help, Tips, Tricks, & Techniques

Hello,

Has anybody used the Easy Fill Depositing Machine from Tomric? Is there a vibrating table with it? Are there any issues with bubbles and trying to get them out of the ganache? Does anybody have one for sale by chance? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Blending Chocolate


Posted in: Tech Help, Tips, Tricks, & Techniques

Has anybodymixed chocolate, for instance 1/2 milk chocolate and 1/2 54% chocolate to create a chocolate blend of 43% cacao or something similar? If so, how did it work out? Are there any pitfalls? How will this change the tempering properties? I will be tempering in a Selmi unit.

Any advice is much appreciated.

David

Selmi One & Injection Plate?


Posted in: Tech Help, Tips, Tricks, & Techniques

I have a Selmi One and love it as an entry-level continuous automated tempering machine. The plate is physically larger than the tank so any excess will not make it back into the machine. Our nextunit will be a Selmi Plus EX and we will use the Selmi One for our lesser used chocolates. Hope this helps.
