Im so excited that I learned how to temper chocolate in the microwave! I'm never going to do it any other way again! If you're skimming this video, just remember that you have to use REAL chocolate with cocoa butter in it for this to work and to never let your chocolate get above 90ºF :-D

Thank you so much for explaining so clearly the science behind tempering! Brilliant! I finally understood! I attended a chocolaterie course a year ago and they were never able to make me understand what makes tempering a success or a fail. I failed so many times with the first two methods, I gave up working with tempered chocolate. You opened a whole new world for me! Method #3 worked! Quickly, easily and most importantly, it worked!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

omg thank you so much for this! i never knew the science behind tempering chocolate. i always wondered why my chocolate covered strawberries always looked dull and it always looked easy to do but i always failed😣 thank youuu❤

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I love the thorough explanation as well as the examples of tempered chocolate vs. Non tempered chocolate. I also liked that you showed the difference between real chocolate and compound chocolate as well as gave examples of what each could be used for. Thank you again. Your video is much appreciated!

This was super helpful. I’ve never known how to temper chocolate and just thought it was something you couldn’t do at home without a bunch of fancy equipment! Thank you so much for your video! I’m going to save it so I’ll have it next time I melt chocolate 🍫

You explained these methods so well. I’ve always been scared to try to temper chocolate. Will definitely try it this weekend! Thank you!!!

You're a genius! I finally understand tempering chocolate!!!

The ending part with your daughter was so wholesome.

What an absolutely priceless video! Tempering chocolate is a very exacting process and can intimidate the best of Bakers. You explain the tempering process better than I've seen in other videos. Thank you so much for sharing your "Wisdom"! I want to make chocolate ball desserts which requires tempering. I have failed miserably with these with in the past. I will definitely refer back to this vid when making them again. You've inspired me!

Thank you for explaining these methods so clearly, every Christmas I try to temper chocolate for my thin mint cookies and I always fail and give up. Im definitely buying myself one of those spatulas.

THANK YOU!!!! I finally tempered chocolate after MANY fails. This was so awesome and easy to follow. Many thanks! 🙏🏾

I am definitely going to try the microwave method! Thank you so much.

I have wasted so much chocolate melting it not knowing about tempering. Thank you so so much for this advice! ❤️

Thanks so much Liz, I tried tempering chocolate for the first time and was successful thanks to your great explanation.

Hi, question. I am about to start a sort of chocolate apple business, but I am not sure what kind of chocolate would be the best for it. I found 2 brands that I like so far: - Wilton chocolate pro melting wafers. - Choco Maker candy wafers. Both taste really good, but for some reason wilton took 12 hours to harden and the choco Maker turned white . I don't know what I did wrong 🤷‍♀️. Any sugestions? 🙏
