I'm really amping my broadcast TV background to give you a multi camera, behind the scenes look at how chocolate is made and how easy it can be done at home. It's a step by step guide to the whole process from the raw ingredients to the finished yummy product. First up, we'll look at how we go from tree to bar, from checking out the saplings that we graft that become cacao trees, through to opening up a cacao pod and looking inside the fruit as we show you how we extract the precious sticky beans. I explain how I ferment on the farm through to processing the nibs. It's a demonstration of the mysteries of bean to bar artisanal chocolate right from our original award winning development kitchen (a converted back bedroom) as I show you how to create your own bars you'll learn how to hand temper chocolate. We'll melt the chocolate and work it around until it is at the right temperature and consistency to give you the magic snap and polish of a finished chocolate bar, you'll then add your favourite toppings before we pop them in the fridge and wait for them to set up. During that time you'll become chocolate sommeliers as I show you how to pick out flavours, notes and the right consistencies that showcase the quality of top bars before we unveil your special, customised home made chocolate.
