About the chocolate e-books in the web shop

CHOCOLATE BONBONS - a practical guide

Filled chocolates, pralines, chocolate bonbons – our favourite children have many names.

In this part of the web shop you will find the English editions of my elaborate and detailed e-books about beautiful chocolate bonbons with delicious fillings.

Here, of course, is the bestseller "CHOCOLATE BONBONS - a practical guide", which is my extremely practical textbook regarding the making of chocolate bonbons. The e-book is a cornucopia of practical tips for all stages of the work process. And these are tips that will benefit both beginners and more experienced makers of chocolate. So the e-book is for you who have never tempered chocolate or coloured cocoa butter before - but wishes to learn how to - and also for you who have tried it before but who would like to improve your skills and optimise your work processes - and of course optimise the result of your finished chocolate bonbons.

In addition to step-by-step guides for tempering chocolate and coloured cocoa butter, "CHOCOLATES BONBONS - a practical guide" also contains all this:

24 recipes for fillings for chocolate bonbons
- including recipes for many different varieties of chocolate ganache. All fillings are balanced, taste super delicious, and have a shelf life of 1-2 months. By this is meant that all the fillings will taste good for 2 months but that a few of the fillings will taste of most in the first month.

Step by step instructions for various decorating techniques and designs
- which you can use if you want to decorate your chocolate bonbons with coloured cocoa butter. There are both instructions for designs that can be made without an airbrush - and designs that require an airbrush.

Beautiful, shiny chocolates
- how do you ensure that your chocolate bonbons have tons of shine? You will also find the answer to that in the e-book.

A whole chapter exclusively about airbrushing
- with coloured cocoa butter, of course. The airbrush chapter contains everything you need to know about airbrushing related to chocolate bonbons, including

1. Bring your airbrush to life
2. Get to know your airbrush
3. Get a handle on what to regulate if the airbrush does not spray evenly and nicely (or does not spray at all)
4. Fixing airbrush issues

Theory chapters
-  in " CHOCOLATE BONBONS - a practical guide", you’ll also get theory chapters. The e-book contains chapters on the physics of chocolate tempering and on the properties of different sugars - including why it is a good idea to combine several different sugars in a ganache rather than just using glucose syrup.

Cleaning, storage, shelf life, equipment, and ingredients
- you will also get help with all these topics in the e-book. You get information on how to clean chocolate moulds and equipment, on storage and shelf life of the chocolate bonbons and also recommendations in relation to equipment and ingredients.

In the web shop you can see the table of contents and selected pages from "CHOCOLATE BONBONS - a practical guide".
