* Plastic Wrap, cut into 3 parts (for 1 kg of chocolate, it only needs about 1/3 of plastic wrap rolls)
Note
// Beside using a rice cooker, we can melt the chocolate by steaming it.
Here is how to steam it:
Pour enough boiled water in a pan or heat-resistant container.
Then in a separate, smaller, heat-resistant container, add the chocolate chunks, then put the chocolate-filled container in the boiled water.
Stir the chocolate until it melts perfectly.
So, we don’t have to melt the chocolate on top of fire.
This way the texture and taste of chocolate can be well preserved.
// If you wish to add some filling (chopped peanuts, jams, etc.).
Please pour the chocolate just a half of the mold first.
Then put in the filling, then pour a melted DCC chocolate on top of it.
Why it must be DCC?
Since the DCC tastes a little bitter, it will complement the sweet taste of the chocolate which tastes quite sweet and milky.
// For keeping the Praline chocolate.
It’s best to keep it at room temperature, not in the fridge. If we store it in the fridge, the chocolate will be prone to wet.
Then once a packed Praline Chocolate is wet, it will be easily ruined if we leave it at room temperature.
// From 1kg chocolate, we can get about 70-200pcs depending on the size of the Praline chocolate that we made.
// Chocolate bars shouldn’t be added with a random food coloring, because it will be prone to harden. It must be the oil-based food coloring instead of water-based one.
