Hello friends

I register at the forum some time ago and visited him constantly, now I have decided to participate and would like to ask your help.

The other day my niece to buy them some chocolate turtles with a whole nut and caramel filling, my niece loves this chocolate and I come with you to ask your help, anyone has the recipe to develop them?

Welcome Filipe. That's a very cute chihuahua in your signature.

Click here for a link to a caramel recipe that will work for turtles. If you look at the end of that post there are some pictures of turtles under construction.

It looks like they have used a turtle mold, painted the eyes, then poured in a layer of chocolate and poured the excess out, then probably taken cooled caramel and pressed it in to the mold and applied the pecan legs to the caramel.

Yesterday confectionary partner Barbara and I made chocolate dipped caramels as a gift for a chocolate deprived friend. With the leftovers, we made a few turtles. Is this timing a co-incidence? I think not...

Thanks for the words, Lior. It's great fun. Everything is a first for me. My partner, Barbara, was raised in a cake-decorating, candy-making family, but I have always avoided cooking anymore than I had to. Now, in my dotage, something has snapped and I am a kitchen devotee.
