With a wonderfully melty oozy centre, this dark chocolate fondant is an absolute must-make! A simple assortment of ingredients, including a generous amount of Callebaut 70% Chocolate, and all executed in a superbly cheffy way makes for a pudding you and your guests won’t soon forget. But be sure not to overbake it as the melty middle is a real game-changer where pudding is concerned.
5. Passion fruit caramel bar
If you’ve never made your own chocolate bar, this is a sign to order some cute artsy chocolate bar moulds and get crafting. But in the cheffy theme of things, not just any chocolate bar will do!
