The finished piece!
Our day went like this: paint chocolate petals with cocoa butter, spray chocolate showpiece with paint spray gun, warm and knead chocolate plastic, make leaves, rosebuds and flowers out of chocolate plastic, assemble flowers, begin assembly of showpiece, curse, pray, continue assembling showpiece, fight with breaking petals, pray some more, carry showpiece into a far enough away room to freak me out, relax because it's finally over.
Here are a few details shots of the piece:
Tomorrow we have been promised a zen day of marzipan fruit making. I can't wait to do something without chocolate!
Just showed the blog pics of the finished product to Patrick and he is gob smacked! I, on the other hand knew that it would look amazing!
