EZtemper


Posted in: Geek Gear - Cool Tools

Yes I can relate to that. I use the seeding method and sometimes it takes ages to get it right.  And I know what you mean about the lumps. Sounds ike the EZtemper is worth the money. Thanks for your insights

small chocolate climate control display for Fair events?


Posted in: Geek Gear - Cool Tools

Appreciate that this is an old post, but am quite excited by this cabinet. I was thinking of using a small wine cabinet but the good ones have dark doors and aren't really good for display purposes. So my question is whether the cabinet needs to have glass or whether  you could use some form of acrylic. Would it maintain the temperature as well? I am concerned to keep the weight down. I'm over filling the fridge with ice packs and constantly worrying about moving stuff around out of direct sun.

Hi

This sounds a great alternative for artisan chocolatiers like myself. However I am wondering about the difference between using this and Mycryo? A visiting French chef showed us this technique a few years ago and I have used it a few times. Same percentage, just sprinkle it in and stir. I have found that it can take a bit of stirring to dissolve at times, and may be more expensive ( but the machine is $1000), so that's a Lot of Mycryo. Is it just the convenience of having the silk ready to go?

Flat printed cello bags


Posted in: Classifieds F/S or Wanted

HiI've been using flat printed cello bags from Chocolat chocolat in Canada for the past 7 years. The flat bags really suit some of my products, and I prefer cellophane for its clarity. Unfortunately they have discontinued most of the printed ones, and although they have a terrific range of clear ones, I still like the added pizazz the prints give. I know places like Nashville wraps have a good selection of gusseted bags, but can anyone suggest a source of flat ones?Thanks in advanceKathryn
