PLANNING: eGullet Chocolate and Confectionery Workshop 2024
Kerry Beal replied to a topic in Pastry & Baking
Not totally sure - but I can certainly pass on info to her. -
First attempt at air layering. My neighbour has a mulberry, and one of the nurses wants to grow some. There are a couple of branches hanging over the fence into my yard and with the neighbours permission I'm giving it a try. We are about 4 weeks into it now - waiting to see some roots showing up in the sphagnum moss.

Renee from Chocolat-chocolat will be driving down and will bring whatever her car can hold. Ruth has ordered some molds - so have a look through the website and see what you are after. Chocolat-chocolat website -

I need everyone to get paid up - less than half so far so it is making it difficult for me to start getting supplies laid in. CANADIANS - PLEASE DON'T PAY ME THROUGH THE PAYPAL LINK - IT COSTS MONEY TO RETURN IT TO YOU WHICH I HAVE TO DO! Canadians can send money via interac to kerry (at) the chocolatedoctor (dot) ca Outside of Canada send via this PayPal link - ignore that it shows 2018 - that's when I made the link initially and I can't change it. It does reflect the pricing this year though - that part I could update. Where it says 'what's this for - make sure I know who you are/ who and what you are paying for. Also tomorrow April 30 - is last day for hotel reservations at the rate we were given. we will be at the Marriott Four Points on Dixie Rd in Mississauga. $159 Cdn per night is the rate - (tax will add about $30 Cdn per night). When you check in you can purchase breakfast vouchers for $13 per day (they gave us a break from the usual $18). The block is for 20 rooms - half one king, other half two queens. I'm expecting most people to come in on Thursday but it allows for a couple of people to come in on Wednesday. Link to reservations -

Every year is passing by at light speed! -
My only foray into freeze dried coffee was to freeze dry a cold brew concentrate for a company I met at the restaurant show to provide proof it can be done. Can’t recall if it was any good

You can't just introduce a story that way and not tell it...

Ok - finally got the numbers run - looks like if we don't lose people we can run the workshop for $325 CDN a person and the Friday dinner/show and tell for $35 without any booze.

Got a call from the hotel today to let me know the number of rooms booked for each day. Just a heads up that the last day to book is April 30. Working on the costs - hope to have it all sorted by early next week. -

I think so. -
I must confess when I make things - I use the chocolate that I have. 2815 is more viscous than the standard 815 which contains more cocoa butter. 811 is sweeter - I like 815 more. Whipped ganache will be fine with that chocolate - and the amarena cherries are great with dark chocolate of any cocoa content IMHO. I'll leave the pan size question to the cake folks who have a much better idea of those things.

Rodney will drag over 2 Selmi's. I'd probably bring any tools you would normally bring - scrapers and such - I don't think they have those things. I suspect that there will be an interest in mold swap/sales - most years it's been popular.
