Chocolate Works (Part 3): Designer Chocolate Bar
Introducing the next phase of chocolates. These are Designer Chocolate Bar creations for Mother’s Day 2021 edition. Idea sourced from Instagram. Three designs with three combination of fruit and nut flavours as below. The fruits are the using the current technology of freeze-dried fruits which retains their orginal colour and being 100% dry contributing to their crunchiness.
Chocolates types are milk and dark chocolate. The most popular being the Strawberry and Hazelnut on Milk Chocolate. My personal favourite is Orange and Walnut. Here’s a glimpse into the production of these chocolate bars. The traditional front is now the back which also showcase the flavours. They look cool whether front or back.
The current front is the flat surface of the chocolate mold where designs are created through placement of dried fruits, nuts, seeds and molded chocolate decorations.
Sourced for packaging from Alibaba, Shopee and Lazada before finally settled on a white window box. Choosing the packaging is a Chicken and Egg Question: do you choose the packaging first, then create the product; or product first, then choose packaging? Trial and error are part of the process. Meaning some money spent before getting the right box fit.
Thank you everyone, for the purchase of cakes, designer chocolate bar and flowers for Mother’s Day 2021. Flowers are from Yen Floral, available whole year long. And now, on with the next celebration; Father’s Day…celebrating the pillar of strength, support, love and power of the family.
