The kids run to the door. “Is it from Omie?” they yell, knowing that means chocolate. We are the branch of The Chocolate Box family tree that blew away. But since we left Melbourne my mum makes sure we don't forget the taste of home. She sends us delicious parcels to sweeten up our lives. We can't eat it all!

Since our puddings come pre-cooked, they just need to be warmed up - and here is how.<br /><br />First, the calico covering of the pudding needs to be removed and the Plum Pudding in it's pouch can either be simmered in a saucepan of water for one hour or placed, with pouch, in a microwave (1000W), for 2 minutes on high, rested for 2 minutes, then cooked for a further 2 minutes. (Yes, only 6 minutes altogether!) Be careful when opening the pouch from the microwave, a jet of steam might come out.<br /><br />Traditionally, people might choose to decorate their pudding with a sprig of holly, or douse it with brandy and (well, I could tell you, but check out these ideas instead).<br /><br />Here are some fun serving suggestions for your Plum Puddings:<br /><br />1. Slice the serves of plum pudding thinly. Drizzle over some warmed maple or golden syrup (only a bit) and then finish with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream!<br /><br />2. Thinly slice your plum pudding and pour steaming warm custard over the top. Decorate with a dollop of whipped cream.<br /><br />3. Drizzle the plum pudding with warm (Chocolate Box) Raspberry Framboise Fruit sauce. (If you remove the metal lid, the fruit sauce jar can be microwaved for a very short while to make it warm). Finish with warm custard and or vanilla ice cream.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.chocolatebox.com.au/catalog/index.php?cPath=214_386">The Chocolate Box Christmas Plum Pudding (400g) </a><br /><a href="http://www.chocolatebox.com.au/catalog/index.php?cPath=98_280">The Chocolate Box Raspberry Framboise Fruit Sauce (250ml)</a>The Chocolate Box, Australiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11855566107236917954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329135216647684132.post-78568415610134660782009-09-10T14:46:00.004+10:002009-09-10T15:02:17.772+10:00RECIPE BLOG!

Chocolate! In one memorable moment Poh put her tempered chocolate baton in the refrigerator to cool, and in hundreds of living rooms around Australia, a collective "Noooooo!"rang out from every employee of The Chocolate Box, every chocolate manufacturer, and every professional pastry chef or amateur cook who has ever worked with couverture chocolate.<br />Some don'ts about tempering coverture chocolate:<br />1. Don't put it in the fridge, and<br />2. Don't get water in it<br />Remember chocolate is very sensitive to changes in temperature and if it changes too quickly, it will become dry tasting and develop a white powdery bloom after it has time to settle.<br /><br />You can find the tempering guide for our chocolate pastilles <a href="http://www.chocolatebox.com.au/catalog/faqs.php?osCsid=6468db60a5e18b90dca41cf1f587a2d4">here</a>.<br /><br />You have probably seen commercial chocolate bars advertised as suitable for keeping in the fridge - but what you need to know is that those bars are made of compounded chocolate. Couverture chocolate, the chocolate lover's chocolate, is a trickier substance to temper, but worth it for serious chocolate afficianados. If you would like to know more about the differences between couverture and compound chocolate read about it <a href="http://www.chocolatebox.com.au/catalog/faqs.php">here</a>.The Chocolate Box, Australiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11855566107236917954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329135216647684132.post-76168895748154460352009-06-29T12:31:00.002+10:002009-06-29T12:43:26.773+10:00RECIPE BLOG!

Grate a portion of the chocolate and put aside for sprinkling. Place chocolate pieces in a bowl with butter. Cook on "high" in your microwave for 1-2 mins, or over a saucepan of boiled water (use two saucepans and dip the second into the boiled water, making sure no water gets into the chocolate mixure) and stir once, half-way through cooking. Whilst chocolate is still melted stir in egg yolks and rum, whisk egg whites until stiff, and fold into the mixture. Pour mixture into 4-6 individual dishes and chill until set. If you wish to decorate it with whipped cream, buy some whipping cream and whip it until it becomes stiff.

Is a creme by any other name just as creamy? Wouldn't mum love a chocolate selection for Mother's Day?<br /><br />I have put together a little guide to separate the pralines from the truffles... (Part 1)<br /><br />In the early days of The Chocolate Box’s history, chocolates were made at the back of the Camberwell (Melbourne) shop, hand filled, piped, and decorated. The Chocolate Box co-owner Marion recalls working in the store at age 13, mixing the fondants, pouring them into the chocolate bases, and piping the chocolates with a decorative initial. The chocolates were then laid out on trays behind the glass counter. These were chocolate coated creams, nut clusters, hard toffees and hand-dipped jellies and fruit, in the days before European style chocolates and pralines became dominant.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGM8LgSgmkoou0XXQKoV0t1xkoKodMKrecLGgKpV4iEW5k0MfwjOkrGHzxiEZPrJh61AV4-2jpWiu5ljaSWAamEkKmm6zWKEmRHbBUEL-KD4DoRUiO9HmR9oxT7V1hbbEcCvg7CbHRfXxq/s1600-h/50th-Anniv-Milk.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 237px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGM8LgSgmkoou0XXQKoV0t1xkoKodMKrecLGgKpV4iEW5k0MfwjOkrGHzxiEZPrJh61AV4-2jpWiu5ljaSWAamEkKmm6zWKEmRHbBUEL-KD4DoRUiO9HmR9oxT7V1hbbEcCvg7CbHRfXxq/s320/50th-Anniv-Milk.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331842336267564386" border="0" /></a><br /><br />If you like chocolates with nut clusters, hard caramels, chocolate coated jelly, coconut roughs, marzipans, and the type of sweet soft creams (or cremes) that run (like egg yolks in a soft boiled egg) when you bite into them, you will love our 50th Anniversary Assortment. (If you are a fan of the hard centres, we have Hard Centre only versions of our 50th Anniversary assortment in all milk and all dark chocolate.)<br /><br />In Europe, the Swiss and Belgian manufacturers had been dominant for many years, but it wasn't until their chocolates were imported to Australia, that Australians got a taste of the very elegant, stylised, and refined European-style chocolate assortments. Characteristically quite beautiful and individual to look at, European assortments often feature pralines (with whipped chocolate centres mixed with finely ground nuts, often hazelnuts or almonds), marzipans (an almond and sugar confection), and truffle centres (made with cream, chocolate and liqueur or other flavours).<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik_3KVbibKnfbU5hw3EdPYA2hflpK080phCckzMpxPAwd_6Tg1cgDpEaT_cx4iDtOB1wUHRmRlZpGWrBqEBD8a9Uods2nJQQhD7KPhp3ZaMd7lSULB1fGhJJErckGffr32A6Q4yBksGriC/s1600-h/laboite_large2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 228px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik_3KVbibKnfbU5hw3EdPYA2hflpK080phCckzMpxPAwd_6Tg1cgDpEaT_cx4iDtOB1wUHRmRlZpGWrBqEBD8a9Uods2nJQQhD7KPhp3ZaMd7lSULB1fGhJJErckGffr32A6Q4yBksGriC/s320/laboite_large2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331842334399903394" border="0" /></a><br /><br />If you like chocolates with soft centres, nut pralines, liqueur or coffee flavoured chocolates, and decorative chocolates that frequently have more than one combination of flavours, you will love our La Boite (Belgian box) assortment.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIDEOWWqm-FzcEWGKHHLJ3b1ozD_V4hG72lDdyb0DV3SwmAwaD4F2Fk-6d_XS9thGoxJkAo2uQH32wHCyKFPG1GNi98wDJ9F_kiqrCJ1VCH7GahmthhP4AYJy1HgnkDJVnhYZmxux08gRw/s1600-h/classic_assorted_large.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 254px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIDEOWWqm-FzcEWGKHHLJ3b1ozD_V4hG72lDdyb0DV3SwmAwaD4F2Fk-6d_XS9thGoxJkAo2uQH32wHCyKFPG1GNi98wDJ9F_kiqrCJ1VCH7GahmthhP4AYJy1HgnkDJVnhYZmxux08gRw/s320/classic_assorted_large.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331842334577446098" border="0" /></a><br />If you would prefer to try an Australian made version of European style chocolates, we have our Classic assortment of chocolates: these include a variety of European style pralines, marzipan chocolates, liqueur flavoured chocolates, creams, buttercreams and chocolate and nut combinations.<br /><br />The List:<br /><a href="http://www.chocolatebox.com.au/catalog/index.php?cPath=27_346">50th Anniversary Assortment</a><br /><a href="http://www.chocolatebox.com.au/catalog/index.php?cPath=27_75">Classic Assortment</a><br />La Boite AssortmentThe Chocolate Box, Australiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11855566107236917954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329135216647684132.post-63469663093877363652009-04-02T11:14:00.017+11:002009-04-02T14:27:58.714+11:00The Easter ListEvery season I put together a list of some of the most interesting and delicious new things available in our stores.

It's pretty easy. Like I usually say "If I can make them, anyone can! TM".<br /><br />INGREDIENTS<br />A tablespoon or two of The Chocolate Box's Raspberry Framboise Sauce<br />2 sheets of puff pastry (each sheet makes 16 stars)<br />1 Freerange Egg<br />1 Tablespoon Water<br />White icing for decoration<br /><table><tr><td><br />IMPLEMENTS<br />Greaseproof baking paper<br />Basting brush<br />Baking tray<br />Bowl<br />Spoon, fork, knife<br /><br />INSTRUCTIONS<br /><br />1. Take out and defrost one sheet of puff pastry. Cut into about 16 squares. Preheat oven to about 200•C.<br />2. Create cuts in all four corners of each sheet, as shown. If you want to make them a bit thinner than mine, you could try rolling out the dough to be a bit finer.<br />3. Spoon on a little bit of Raspberry Framboise Sauce into the centre of the stars. I find that you actually don't need very much. <br />4. Fold over one startip from each corner into the centre, until you make a pinwheel shape. See diagram at right. Make sure that you press the dough together at the centre of each star, otherwise the stars might not keep their shape.<br />5.
