Given that I feel totally responsible for bringing you over to the dark side - I think we should look at the options for making that happen!

You just need to send her some lightsaber thermoformed molds. Then she will make some dozens chocolate lightsabers, go out of the cinema this fall when Episode IX comes out and sell them. After 3-4 days she will have made enough profits to buy an EZ Temper. With the EZ Temper she will be able to make hundreds of lightsabers each day, leading to even more profits. When the workshop time comes she will have a full line with depositor and cooling tunnel. And Mickey knocking at her door asking for copyrights.

Happy to be back 🙂

You have been missed! Funny I was just looking at some old posts a while back and wondering how you were doing.

Thoughts on what we could get Mark Heim to teach a master class on?

Just a few ideas. Always ready to learn from Mark Heim!

 

- recipe formulation

- working with multiple textural components

- Q&A session where Mark helps tweak problem recipes 

 

 

 

[Desiderio]

I am pretty much ready to learn anything at this point. I have been out of real chocolate production (aside the usual holidays production for friends and family), and I am eager to be immerse in chocolate and awesome company!

On that note, I have a job offer on the table that I am considering, that will bring me back to the chocolate world. Its exiting and scary at the same time, I feel pretty rusty. But there a few things I have to consider.

Meanwhile, i'll dream about the workshop :-)

Hi,

 

I had such fun last year, I'm looking into it.  Do you think they have a hot table?
