Oh thanks! It didn't appear -- at least to me, last night. I guess you could delete the extra one and this part of the thread now. Probably not good reading for anyone else. But thank you!

How to transport chocolates?

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

Hi all. I'm just a beginner in this business so please forgive my elementary questions. I would like to know how people transport large numbers of chocolates to clients. The chocolates would be put on trays and sold by the piece. If the client is in long driving distance (i,e, up to two hours) would you deliver them or ship them? How do you keep them from getting marred or broken? How about during the summer? All help will be appreciated!

How to transport chocolates?

Posted in: Uncategorized

Hi all. I've been wondering how people transport large numbers of chocolates to customers (in this case a cafe). This assuming that they will be put out on trays in a case and sold by the piece. How do you pack them so they don't get marred or broken? I'm just a beginner in this business so please forgive me if this seems like a simple question.

how to join two halves of filled molded chocolates

That's an interesting idea -- I was thinking of using a hair dryer to do the same sort of thing. So the pan must not be very warm -- about body temp or more than that?

Both really but especially regular ganache

Thanks for the tip. I tried to just slap together molds with ganache filling and the bond between the halves was a little tenuous -- they looked great though.I know that giaduja will hold the halves together -- and have a question in that regard;I heard that Wybaut has a method for filling molds that involves pouring or scraping the filling over the mold and then scraping very well. have you done this at all? Does it work or cause problems.Many thanks!

Hi all. I am working on filled molded chocolates -- made in 2 halves, fillled, then joined together mold to mold -- an example of this would be small filled eggs. does anyone have any experience with this -- perhaps some tips? I'd love to benefit from other peoples' experiences rather than reinventing the wheel. Thanks in advance.

Many thanks. I definitely don't want no flavor chocolate. I haven't tried Felchlin -- will have to give that w whirl!

Hi Dirke,I know of one distributor locally who carries chocolate but their selection is extremely limited. I will do some research on other distributors in the area. Good idea!
