how to make those chocolate fruit shells you see on the bakery section of the grocery store?
i was recently at my local heb store and while shopping their bakery section i noticed this chocolate shells, looked like chocolate "cups" filled with fruits. how do they make these "cups"? and also how do they make the fruit appear so glossy?
the chocolate cups are actually just that, chocolate cups. i make mine with candy mold and melted choc. if you dont have any molds you can use a cupcake paper and just paint it with melted choc, when it has cooled peel the paper off and voila- chocolate cup.
and the fruit, if you put fruit in a bowl mix with a couple tblspoons of sugar(no liquid) and let it sit for a while the sugar will raw the pectin out of the fruit and make it shiny and "pie"tasting.
