Share the love with these oh-so-simple rose raw chocolates

This is a slight variation on the basic raw chocolate recipe to be found in our Raw Chocolate Making Kit.

It's virtually impossible to go wrong with this recipe. Just take your time and you'll end up with a tray of 15 amazing tasting raw chocolates!

Ingredients:

• 60-70g Raw Cacao Butter
• 50g Raw Cacao Powder
• 1-3 tbsp Sweet Freedom
• 1-2 drops Rose Otto Essential Oil

Method

1. Place a clean bowl over a saucepan of hot water (bain marie). Ensure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water & no water goes inside the bowl
2. Grate the cacao butter, add to the bowl & allow to melt slowly. Don’t keep the water boiling, turn the heat off and just give it a quick blast every so often if necessary
3. Once melted, add the cacao powder & stir in thoroughly with a balloon whisk or fork, until it starts to slightly thicken
4. The chocolate should be runny & easy to pour
5. Add 1 tbsp of Sweet Freedom & stir in very thoroughly. It will thicken as you add the Sweet Freedom
6. Taste it and if you prefer it sweeter, add more 1/2 tbsp at a time, mixing thoroughly and tasting after each
7. Add 1 drop of food grade rose otto essential oil and stir well. Its very strong, so taste it before adding a 2nd drop if you want
8. When the mixture suits your taste, pour gently into the mould using a jug or spoon
9. Place it in the fridge to set for a couple of hours (or in the freezer if you can’t wait that long)
