Critical Success Points

  • Melt the chocolate without burning it
  • Properly freeze the chocolate shells before filling
  • Achieve the right consistency of the nut paste (not too liquid, not too dry)
  • Allow the chocolates and biscuits to firm sufficiently before demoulding

Safety Warnings

  • Melted chocolate is very hot; handle with care and use kitchen gloves.
  • Hot oil can cause splatters; do not leave the heat unattended.
  • Salted butter caramel reaches high temperatures; let it cool slightly before handling.
