How Do You Make Ginger Cherry Apricot And Nut Chocolates?
• Use the first four ingredients to make uncooked fondant. The fondant recipe to follow is Make Uncooked Fondant Candies. Caramel syrup is a great addition to this fondant, especially if nuts are to be used. To add caramel syrup, use three tablespoonfuls of the syrup and just one tablespoonful of water with one egg white, instead of the two tablespoonfuls of water indicated in the uncooked fondant recipe. • Work the fondant for some time. Break off little bits and wrap around small pieces of the fruit. • Make the candy shapes. Roll in the hollow of the hand to form balls or oblongs. For other candies, roll a piece of the fondant into a ball, flatten it with the fingers and use to cover a whole pecan or walnut. • Set each shape on a plate as it is finished. They will harden very quickly, so proceed to the next step quickly. Dip these, one by one, in the melted chocolate and set on baking paper to harden.
