Sorry, my posts are a little behind, I was making this. If you’re too lazy to watch both videos I would watch the second one. It was too long so I had to speed it up to upload it and it made my voice really high pitched and it’s kind of funny. Sacrifice for success!
I have been slowly searching for an expert. I have a pretty good idea on who I want. His name is Brad, from Mad Brad’s Candy. He owns a little candy stand somewhere in Kingsway mall and has a Facebook page on the candy he makes. I would look at it but I’m not allowed Facebook.
If I want Brad’s help, I don’t want to come empty handed. I want to give him something to taste of mine. But I don’t want it to be chocolate. I would rather it be something fruity, like a gummy.
I’m going to try a recipe I found on Pintrest made by Sparkly Fruit Gummies – Our. The recipe calls for a lot of sugar, but I’m going to decrease the amount.
Unfortunately, I could not upload the video of me making chocolate because of some technical difficulties. But I’ll tell you about the chocolate. It was AWFUL. I didn’t think chocolate could be bad, but I was definitely wrong. It was way too bitter for chocolate. It was probably because I added solid honey to the mixture and it didn’t mix in because it didn’t melt.
So overall, I need to add more sweetener to the chocolate. Also I over-measured everything when making the chocolate so I had so much excess left over. I wasted my dad’s coconut oil. 🙁 So next time I make chocolate, I will either melt the honey or use a different sweetener, like maple syrup.
