Hi brittnee love your channel I have a question, how long do the fillings last, eg. Caramel, ganache etc. Are there any that will go bad quickly, I am very new to chocolate making but would love to make different fillings but I am afraid the fillings wouldn't last very long.

@BrittneeKay

@@patricianye2578 Thank you!! You can't know exactly how long unless the fillings are tested for water activity...with that being said ganaches last less long than caramels for example. The more water in the recipe the quicker they'll go bad. More information to come on this on my channel and in my future course! : ) Unofficially, I usually try to eat non-shelf stable chocolates that I make within a week or close to that!

Thanks brittnee, that has given me a bit more understanding. I think I will stick to more sugar based fillings for now. I love making them, but you can only give away or eat so many in a short period of time. But thanks again for the reply.

Great work, very talented. I also follow the bucket list family and recognize you getting your go pro. I went to Le Cordon bleu in Orlando. I did go scuba diving in Grand Cayman for a trip. I look forward to more lessons in cocoa. With gratitude, James

Amazing! I love that you showed the fails because realistically you always have 1 or 2 that don't go how you want but regardless these looked fantastic!

Glad you find that part helpful! Definitely a lot to always learn! : )

I like both styles but think each style could target two different audiences. The😮 coloured ones, which look more fun, would attract teenage chocolate gourmets whilst the gold more classic style would appeal to the more "grown ups". Big trips scheduled to France, Belgium, Hungary and Poland. Best, best trip so far was India, we loved it. As a newbie at making chocolate bonbons, your videos are a great help in teaching various techniques. Thank you. Sorry I dont use Instagram!

Hi Brittnee , I am a chocolatier from Germany but live in the USA. I have a chocolate shop and about 2 years ago I have added "Designer Truffles" to my list. your videos are inspiring and I love to watch them. As far as travel goes, do it.....I am excited that you visit the "North" and am sure you will get many inspirations form there. ( Just don't add pickled herring to your truffles! )

Hi Brittnee 😊 I'm new to the channel & an amateur chocolate maker- your videos have been so helpful omg bless u 🫶🏾 I was wondering if you have any advice about preserving fillings/keeping shelf stable for bonbons(glucose, invert sugar things like that)? Merci muchly!! You're a star ✨

@BrittneeKay

3 ай бұрын

Thank you so much! I am planning to make more videos on shelf life in the future, but am working on developing recipes and planning out my future course. In general fillings high in sugar and low in water will last longer. So caramels will have longer shelf life than ganaches. There are definitely ingredients you can add to extend shelf-life as well, but I can't quite get into that here yet. Another thing to note is that you can't know the shelf-life unless the fillings are tested for water activity. My advice as a beginner would be to focus on mastering chocolate tempering and then step to decorating and molding. Don't worry about long lasting fillings at first because it isn't needed, fill the chocolates with something you enjoy eating and sharing. And then move on to learning about fillings when your'e ready to expand!
