Marble Striped Chocolate Decoration
Craft black-and-white striped chocolate decorations on a marble countertop.
Ingredients
dark chocolate (melted before use)
to taste
white chocolate (melted, temperature should not be too high)
to taste
Instructions
1
Spread dark chocolate
Spread the melted dark chocolate evenly over a marble work surface.
2
Scrape stripes
Quickly use a triangle scraper to drag through the chocolate and create stripes.
3
Trim edges
Use a spatula to trim both long sides neatly into straight edges.
4
Spread white chocolate
Once the dark chocolate has hardened, spread the melted white chocolate on top (keep the white chocolate temperature low, otherwise the pattern will smear and blur).
5
Smooth the surface
Use a flat palette knife and sweep it back and forth to smooth out the white chocolate layer.
6
Roll into curls
Press one finger against one edge of the spatula and, holding the marble table steady, push the spatula forward to roll the chocolate into curls.
