So I made truffles last weekend for Valentine's Day.



So I didn't think of taking pictures until like halfway through the whole process.


Here, the chocolate, cream, and butter have already been mixed together and cooled, and I just scooped them out and plopped them onto pans.


Ooohhhh yeeeaahh! Clumpy piles of chocolate.


Okay, so maybe I took a bunch of pictures of the same thing...


I bet I could've scraped one more chocolate ball out from this bowl.


So I have cocoa powder there to roll the balls into. But then I had the bright idea to mix confectionary sugar with red food coloring.


It took a loooooooot of food coloring and mixing to make the sugar actually look red.


I roped my brother into assembling little candy boxes for me :D


Here they are all powdered and pretty and dolled up.


As you can see, I was quite biased.


My mess.


Pretty pretty boxes!



All in all, a fun experience. I'd definitely do it again... in fact, I still have a bag of dark chocolate left. Hmmm...
