How to Make Lime Caramel, Coconut Praline and Rum Ganache Chocolates:

Recipe by Ruth Hinks

We have used mould SMP8060 - but you can use a mould of your choice

Using a small paintbrush, paint green (SCR471) and yellow (SCR472) cocoa butter colours into each cavity of the mould.
Wait for it to set. Then with gold creative powder colour (SCR461), brush the inside of the mould.
Line the mould with Cacao Barry Alunga (SCC746), Turn out excess chocolate, tap, scrape and let cool

Lime Caramel Filling

Heat up the cream and set aside
Make a dry caramel with the sugar and add the butter
Slowly add the cream
Bring to the boil and add the Lime Flavour Oil
Strain and allow to cool, and pipe into the mould

Coconut Praline Filling

Temper the Lactée Superieure milk chocolate (SCC1130) and add the praline paste (SCM132)
Mix in the toasted coconut and roll between two guitar sheets (SEA284)
Cut out into a small disc and place on top of the caramel

Rum Ganache Filling

Bring the cream and glucose to the boil
Pour over the Sao Thome dark chocolate, Mount Gay rum and butter
Blend very well and pipe into the moulds on top of the coconut disc
Close off once it has set with Alunga (SCC746)
