looks so fun..... I wish I could make sweets. I've never done anything more than cake mix or cookies..... sad :(
Hopefully, when I'm older, I will be able to try this

LOL. I'm so glad our kitchen tops are made with marble xD Talk about convenience in tempering chocolates, making fondant and kneading dough :D

@Piklethedoodad Here's a tip. Go to a hardware store of some kind that makes and installs sinks. They have to cut a hole in a marble or granite counter top to install the sink right? Normally these places have extra slabs of marble or granite lying that you can get for pretty cheap, because there isn't any other use for them, unless you're tempering chocolate LOL.

I second what mr. Exprise said, adding that keeping a cool temperature helps creating a certain type of chocolate crystals that are crucial to creating the right temper (a shiny surface, a right snap upon breaking and the right melting temperature).

I wish I had one of those slabs, too bad they cost about the same as a small car -.- Making pastry on those is a dream.
