I own a confection business and I'm teaching myself how to make fine chocolates. I have watched quite a few KZread videos on making chocolates and I have to say, this is the most informative, well presented video I have seen so far! Thank you for all of the wonderful information! :)

How is your confection business going?

Hands down the best most detailed video on the topic that I have found, thank you.

Great Job, as a Culinary School/Pastry Arts Graduate who worked in NYC and Hawai'i as a Pastry Chef, your demo is spot on. I've found tempering Chocolate is the hardest technique to teach my pastry cooks who did not go to culinary school. One of the best investments I've made is to buy a table top version Tempering Machine. A little trick. sea salt or kosher salt to the soft ganache it makes the chocolate flavor pop!! Great job.

Thanks for the tip!

I honestly wish I could attend ANY class you teach. Excellent, clear, detailed explanation / demo. Thank you.

Josie, you should wait until your truffles are cooled and hardened all the way before refrigerating them. If you refrigerate while they are still somewhat warm they cool too fast and can crack and the filling can leak out...a streaking on the chocolate can also happen. -Cristina

Chef, this is a phenomenal video! In school I took a class on confections and wanted to brush up on truffles before making some. If I had no prior knowledge, I would still feel confident after watching this video--it's informative and comprehensible. And! You are calm and orderly. It takes away any stress and intimidation! 10/10, fantastic content.

This was the best tutorial I have ever seen on making chocolate truffles. Thank you!

Agreed

hi made a batch of 3 dark chocolate bars and cream , divided this into thirds , kept one as just plain then added an equal amount of peanut butter to the second third and added caramel to the last third. this makes the chocolate go further and gives you three types of truffle. The dark chocolate I used was the cheapest I could buy just to try things out and the caramel I made from a can of condensed milk . I rolled them into three different shapes. Really pleased with the results . Would recommend anyone to try this

This is the best video on the topic I've seen and I've watched quite a few. Thank you.

Excellent video. So many instructional videos skip steps, or don't fully explain what is going on. This was the only video I needed to make proper truffles.

If I had done that, there’d be chocolate on the ceiling, floor, walls, my car, my neighbor’s doghouse, the Washington Monument, and the Hubble Space Telescope! 😂 🍫 This pastry chef is so clean and professional! 👏🏽

There are better. Google Paul A. Young. He makes luxury chocolates in UK.

Thank you so much for making this video. I had no idea to tap the mold to get all the air out...so its kinda like making macaroons. Truffles are something I always wanted to learn how to make for 2 reasons. 1. They are my husband's favorite candies. 2. My grandmother was an exberts Baker/chololatier bit died when I was 9. I haven't had one since and am looking forward to making memories with my own grandchild...our first....which is due to be born in July. Thanks for not only mentioning all the steps, but WHY each step is so vital to making the treat good. Bravo!

best truffle making video i've seen. so informative and so many types of truffles, too!

Wow, this is easy to follow. I have to try this coz Truffles is too expensive . Thank you

Thank you jordan for your explanation .Ive watched so many people.,chefs make chocolate they never explained the right way .So i gave up making these .Thank you im back to making chocolate❤

Very elegant presentation, is the best explanation and demonstration of tempering chocolat and making the bonbons.. Congratulations Chef Cristina ! Greetings from Miami. Note: chocolate truffle is a type of chocolate confectionery, traditionally made with a chocolate ganache centre coated in chocolate, cocoa powder or chopped toasted nuts, usually in a spherical, conical, or curved shape.

Robert, the recipe says for every amount of alcohol you must subtract equal amount of cream. For example, if the recipe calls for 3 ounces of cream and you want to add 1 ounce of liquor then add 1 ounce of liquor and 2 ounces of cream. You need to add the alcohol after you mix the cream with chocolate. -Cristina

OMG I LOVE THIS VIDEO !

Thank you for all the help!!

I have to say this is the best tutorial I've seen yet. I have a question. I want to make the ganache part of the truffle using Maker's Mark Bourbon. My question is how much bourbon should I add to the cream or is it whatever I want to make it more bourbony tasting? Should I add it when the cream is boiling or after when when mixing in the chocolate? I want to learn because we've been buying Maker's Mark truffles for a while and it's rather costly and I'm looking into making my own. Thanks.

Extremely helpful video

Very helpful video! thank you

What a nice, useful video!!!

Lorenso, you can use any kind of cream. It does not have to be Strauss or Clover. -Cristina

What a nice tutorial

GRACIAS SEÑORA.

When she said there was a special fork for dipping all I could think of was fondue forks... Lol really helpful video, thanks!

@ lejenny23 heavy cream is what is known as whipping cream, which is 35% milk fat. Regular cream or half amd half will not have the same properties as heavy cream, thus cannot be substituted.

12:34 ah, i always wondered how they added designs to the truffles. thanks

Yes. Michael's or Sur La Table should have them.

i love it!

4:54 ah, "couverture chocolate" is a new term to me.

You're welcome.

After making the shells, while filling them, your tempered choc may get bellow the right temp. In case i need to make it hot again(bain marie) do I need to temper it again or they are goig to go without tempering? Great video, congrats!

What a beautiful 🌹 Chocolates.

Beautiful

How many dipped truffles does this amount make??? Thank you sooo much Huge help

For the thicker truffles what size tray did you use? A normal cookie sheet size?

Your video was very helpful. For the Dipped Truffles the firm filing what size pan/tray was that you use to set it up in? Thank You

Iam about to T.T OMG she is so cool , well learned , talanted I wan be like her.

Heard chef! ❤️😍

Thanks for sharing! I like the design of the bowls used for garnishing pieces. Do you know the brand of these dishes? Cheers.

Hello chef, how do you keep the dipping chocolate from getting hard? Is it because of the tempering method, or do you reheat with the double boiler?

If I want to add fruit purée or cheese to the firm ganache should I stay on the same recipe or make alterations ?

Great explanation. But, how do you tell if your chocolate is not tempered ?

Can you substitute the milk chocolate and dark chocolate for white chocolate to make white chocolate truffles
