Happy Easter

Easter stands for chocolate. Chocolate Easter bunnies, Easter eggs and so on. I love watching 'Chocolat'. Since I have been making bonbons myself, I wanted to make my own Easter eggs as well. And last year I finally found the mold I wanted, and thankfully Santa brought it for me at Christmas.

So I went nuts. I made six flavours. Cinnamon, amarula, caramel, dulce de leche cream, coconut and just white chocolate.
It's a process. A messy process. And now I am just glad there are no food related holidays for a while! (mostly because I really don't want to clean my kitchen 6000x per week anymore)

Enjoy a little photo spread of the chocolate love. Happy Easter!

Halloween Fushion: How I did some carving

Before this weekend, I had never carved a pumpkin. Heck, I had done little more than look at pumkins and eat my mum's pumpkin soup. But as my local supermarket had halloween pumpkins in stock and all the carving tools for seriously few €€€, I decided to go ahead and do some holiday stealing. (After all in the Netherlands we don't celebrate Halloween, offcially, anyway).
After some pondering I decided, that if I was stealing holidays, I might as well go all in and steal some Day of the Dead from Mexico as well. And so I carved a mexican death mask into my pumpkin.
I only slipped up once, and I was actually very pleased! I can barely wait till next year, I'll go pumkin crazy!!
