FOOD WITH MIGUEL MAESTRE RUBY CHOCOLATE LOLLIPOPS

To celebrate the new variety of chocolate, Ruby Chocolate, Miguel visits The Queen of

Chocolate, Kirsten Tibbals, to create a chocolate lollipop with a twist.

Prep time: 45 minutes

Cooking time: 5 minutes

Makes 70 lollipops

Lollipop Base

400 ml coconut cream

4 star anise

1 lemon, zested

4 vanilla beans, cut and scraped (or equivalent amount of vanilla bean paste)

350 g Callebaut Ruby chocolate

White chocolate, for tempering

White chocolate truffle shells

1. Boil the coconut cream, star anise, zest and cut and scraped vanilla beans.

2. Once boiling, remove from the heat and cover with plastic wrap touching the

surface of the mixture and infuse for 10 minutes.

3. Re-boil the mixture and strain over the ruby chocolate in a bowl, whisk until

melted.

4. Allow to cool before piping into the truffle shells.

5. Melt the white chocolate or temper it if it contains cocoa butter. To temper the

chocolate, heat it in a plastic bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time until

you have 50% liquid and 50% pieces of chocolate. Stir it vigorously without

additional heat until all the chocolate has melted. If you have some resistant

chocolate, you can gently heat with a hair dryer while stirring.

6. Place the tempered chocolate into a disposable piping bag and pipe on the top of

each truffle shell to seal it. Before the chocolate sets, place in a lollipop stick.

Finishing

Ruby chocolate, for tempering

White chocolate, for tempering

Black oil soluble colour (available from patisserie/chocolatier supply stores)

Pink oil soluble colour

1. Temper the ruby chocolate (instructions above). Ensure you have tempered enough

chocolate to fill a bowl deep enough for dipping.

2. Temper the white chocolate and divide it between three bowls. Sieve the black colour

into one bowl, pink colour into another bowl and leave the last bowl free of colour, so

simply white chocolate. Stir vigorously to combine the chocolate with the colour.

3. Transfer the bowls of chocolate to three separate paper piping cones.

4. Cut a small tip off the end of each piping cone and pipe the colours in a grid pattern

on top of the bowl of tempered ruby chocolate.

5. Dip the lollipop base into the prepared chocolate and twist as you remove the base

from the chocolate.

6. Hang the lollipops upside down on a lollipop stand or polystyrene.

7. Leave to set for at least 10 minutes at room temperature.

8. Once set, turn the lollipops over.

9. You can continue piping on top of the chocolate in a grid pattern until the chocolate

needs reheated. Before reheating, scrape the coloured section off the top. You can

reheat the chocolate and continue the process until the chocolate becomes too

shallow.
