Bought myself a cookbook on chocolate-making because it's THAT time of the year in Japan where men expect handmade sweet treats from their women.
this year i am sticking to the simple recipes because the fudge chocolate i made for ken's birthday last year was met with a less than cordial reception (darn those coffee granules).
the menu for this year is cocoa-coated almonds and strawberries dipped with milk chocolate.
in the meantime, since i am supposed to be swearing off chocolate, i shall have to contend with feasting my eyes on valrhona.
which reminds me.
i know a place that serves heavenly cocoa melted down from 100% valrhona chocolate that's hidden somewhere in pasir panjang. those who are keen will have to remind me to bring them there when i return home in june.
