All I've done all day is look up different molds, websites, and information about molding chocolates. I already went to the craft store tonight to compare prices and peeped a candy mold shaped like fast food (<3).
I've decided that I am going to make homemade chocolates for many of the people on my Christmas list. It's nice to be excited about a new project. I'm really enjoying researching and learning about the process for tempering and molding chocolate.
I'm looking for ways to reconnect to cooking and baking. Engaging in those activities can be very centering for me in many ways. I just wish that the kitchen here was bigger.
Also, when I was out today, I found a discounted cupcake kit with a recipe book, icing tips, 100 decorated cupcake papers, and a piping bag. Less than $4!!! There's an avocado butter cream icing I've had my eye on for a while so that is also in the works.
Tomorrow I'm making my new favorite chocolate chip cookies for ADD Fest at Roboto. I've only made this recipe myself once before so there is still some experimenting to do, however, this method is tried and true by two reliable friends and Cooks Illustrated.
