Method

This zesty, sweet and indulgent orange and Cointreau ganache is heavenly, encased in high quality milk chocolate from Callebaut.

We've used our cocoa pod praline mould (SMP8026P) and decorated it with orange and lime green cocoa butter, but these bonbons would be just as fabulous in any shape and colour!

  1. Spray the mould with coloured cocoa butter, we've used lime green (SCR1078A) and orange (SCR475).
