^ this began by doing a few courses. The teacher was at the World Chocolate Masters thing in France a couple of year's ago. One of the dudes from Hershey's was there and they were all doing a tasting of various single-origin fancy stuff. Mr Hershey was 'proud' of the fact they effectively leach out the flavour of the beans they use and add it back in artificially, for consistency. NICE.

I've not tried making it from scratch but have been making chocolate and flavoured truffles recently.
3 of the successful ones - wattleseed, salted rosemary, fresh mint. Let's not talk about the others.

- i'm not a fan of "sweet" chocolate. i like the strange combos... sea salt, chili, etc.sine
- never tried the wasabi though.sine
- Yeah, the salt in this one is good. Don't even try the wasabi, it's from the devil's cheeseboard.eoin
- yeah I was skeptical about the salted ones, but it was very goodMiguex
- also, it's redundant to call it sea salt, since all salt comes from the seaMiguex
