Your Daily Sweets: What Are You Making and Baking? (2017 – )

[Matthew.Taylor]

Made these over the last few days. You guys might remember Chocolate Shard Shortbread? Real big on, I think, Instagram a few years ago.

Will check out the copper one. 

 

If you can find a larger glass (it has to be thin) souffle dish, grab it!  They really produce a great end product.

 

Curious as to your favourite flavours -

 

Ours had to be, in no particular order:

 

- Grand Marnier

- Fig

- Chocolate

- Marzipan

 

Need to get a new glass souffle dish now!

Found these candy strips at dollarama today so the rainbow ones will look like this but I think I will pipe the clouds rather than use marshmallows and use a sky blue as the base frosting.

This and your witches hats are awesome!!!

I was particularly taken with the Grand Marnier, but I've liked them all so far. For me, chocolate is probably more suited to a smaller soufflé, as it's quite rich. I'll try to make more with fruit purée as the base; I have a fig tree so thanks for the nod.

 

The copper moulds are by Mauviel.

Agreed.  Grand Marnier works so well in a souffle.  Fig tree - very jealous.  Enjoy.  Oh, add some walnuts to the fig creation for a bit of awesome texture and the flavours work great together.

 

Anything from Mauviel is top notch, but those are too small for my liking - I much prefer a larger dish and serve everyone individually.  Personal preference, I suppose.

Almond frangipane cakelets with blackberries.  These were served with a blackberry coulis.  They have a fine textured crumb with a thin, crisp crust.
