Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Special Touch: Garnish with chocolate leaves. To make chocolate leaves, wash and dry 8 fresh nonpoisonous leaves such as lemon and rose or use pliable plastic leaves. In small saucepan, melt 1/4 cup (50 mL) semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 tsp (2 mL) oil over low heat, stirring constantly. Using small brush, brush chocolate about 1/8-inch (3 mm) thick over backs of leaves. Refrigerate at least 1 hour until firm. Peel off leaves, handling as little as possible.
