Unofficial KitKats were made from dark chocolate and Ryvita in WWIIIt’s not just the look of these brilliant handmade Welsh chocolates that make them stand out from the crowd – it’s also the delectable taste. You can find many types of Welch chocolate to suit your preferences, including sea salt caramel, dark chocolate, orange chocolate, and even chocolate shortbread. The fact that it’s handmade, using only the best chocolate ingredients, makes it even more special. As chocolate gifts go, you can’t get better than these, and your recipients will surely agree. Our chocolate sheep are very popular," says Sister Genevieve, the chocolate-making nun of Kylemore Abbey in Connemara. "Anything that is a sheep, people love, although we have yet to make sheep-shaped soap." Right after you pipe the buttercream on, lightly cover it in mini marshmallows to create your sheep fur. What could be better than a startled sheep perched on top of a cupcake? These little treats are really easy to make and as a bonus, completely delicious! I made a batch of my ultra-moist chocolate cupcakes, smeared some vanilla buttercream on then placed my marshmallows. Boom, 95% done! The faces come together in a snap but if possible make them a day ahead so they can dry out.

When your sheep head is assembled, carefully set it aside and allow it to harden up a bit before you place it onto your cupcake. You can substitute whole milk yogurt for the sour cream if desired, I do it all the time and can’t really tell the difference. For the cupcakes; prewar the oven to 350F and add papers to a cupcake tin. Sift the dry ingredients (including the sugar) into the bowl of a stand mixer and whisk to combine.Once your cupcakes have cooled, grab your piping bag filled with buttercream and pipe it onto your cupcake. Cheek by jowl with the soapery is the chocolate kitchen, which used to be the home economics classroom. The smell is immediate, so rich and sweet, I want to dive right in. Fortunately, Valentina, the professional chocolatier who runs the kitchen is on hand with a plate of samples, including dark chocolate with mint jam (the mint grown in the Abbey garden) and milk chocolate with pistachio. Use a small paint brush to gently brush a small amount of water onto the fondant where you want the ears and eyes to be. Solid chocolate was finally invented in 1847. Once the big brands began to industrialise, chocolates with fondant centres became hugely popular. They were sold in handmade boxes decorated with silk, tassels and lace, with names like Cadbury’s The Fancy Box. When I first wrote this post in 2016 we were all vegetarian and two of us were about to go vegan. Four of us have now switched to veganism so to ensure our crispy cakes are still on the menu I adapt this recipe just a teeny bit.
