Assorted leaves; see * Note |
INSTRUCTIONS
* NOTE: Use leaves that are pesticide-free and have pronounced veins
such as magnolia, nasturtium, lemon, rose and holly. Wipe outside of
leaves with a paper towel, ensuring that the surfaces are clean and
dry. Spread the tempered chocolate on the back of a leaf with your
fingertip or a clean, dry pastry brush; spread it neatly to the edge
of the leaf, and wipe away the excess. (Be sure each leaf is coated
with 1/4" chocolate; apply second coat if needed.) Repeat with as
many leaves as you wish to coat. Gently bend the leaves over the edge
of a parchment-lined baking tray to give them the curved, bowed shape
of real leaves. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours. Remove the
molded chocolate from the leaves by gently pulling back leaf around
its outer edges. Use chocolate leaves immediately.
