Great video! Whenever I melt chocolate do you recommend putting anything to keep it runny/smooth for long & easier when dipping? I know some people add coconut oil, but I’m not sure what’s best. Also how do I keep my strawberries from releasing liquids after they’re covered? Thanks

@PipeIt 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Gabby and its a good question you ask. I think i'm going to have to do a video on this asap because you are not alone when it comes to wanting to know ways of getting your chocolate right. Just out of curiosity are you using a low grade chocolate? you can use coconut oil to thin the chocolate out however if you want a perfect solution use 50% callebaut chocolate combined with 50% (nice tasting) compound/fractionated chocolate and you won't have to add oils because the level of cocoa butter in the fine chocolate and you also won't have to worry about tempering because of the addition of the compound chocolate. Hope this helps

Hi Jennifer, Callebaut make compound chocolate, otherwise Merckens or Nestle compound are good. But at the end of the day, with compound or any chocolate, it really comes down to what tastes best for you and if you're happy with the taste and results... use that one.

I love love love the tip with using the little spatula to get the perfect drizzle. 😍😍😍. One question tho, besides using the powdered colouring, is the gel one ok or no? Thanks so much.

@PipeIt 3 жыл бұрын

Glad you like the tip Trecia 🙂 Gel colour is simply a disperser added to powder. It helps mix the powder through a product easier and more evenly but the downside is you are paying for the weight if disperser instead of colour. To answer your question, if the main ingredient is water you shouldnt use it for chocolate. You want oil soluble colours, not water soluble. I hope this helps.
