Whether you prefer delectable truffles or delightful cake pops, these wizarding treats will cast a spell on your taste buds! Indulge in the Golden Snitch and bring a touch of Hogwarts to your dessert table.
Tools and Ingredients:
⚡ Plain truffles or cake pops
⚡ Lustre dust or edible glitter
⚡ Baking paper
⚡ Optional: Rolkem quick dry essence or clear alcohol (like vodka)
Method:
- Draw wings for your golden snitch on baking paper. Turn over and tape tape to the bench.
- Melt white chocolate and add to a piping bag, then pipe out the wings following your pattern. Leave extra white chocolate aside for attaching to the snitch ball later.
- Melt dark or milk chocolate in a microwave safe bowl according to package instructions. Stir until smooth and completely melted.
- Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate using a fork or dipping tools, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing them onto baking paper.
- Once the chocolate is set mix edible gold lustre dust with a small amount of the rolkem quick dry essence or clear alcohol to create a paint-like consistency. Use a food-safe paintbrush to lightly brush the mixture over the chocolate to create a shimmering effect. Alternatively coat in edible glitter.
- Again melt a very small amount of white chocolate and pipe a small amount either side of the truffle ball. Insert your wings and hold for a minute until they are secure.
- Enjoy!
