Recipe Review

16th November 2012

friederike from Berlin,

Hmm. I wasn't really convinced. I'll admit I'm not a fan of chocolate fondants - I'd rather have chocolate mousse, chocolate ice cream or a brownie. But apart from that - the dessert tasted very heavy, but it wasn't very rich in flavour. Even though we had used a good quality chocolate, it tasted like pretty cheap stuff.

Additionally, we noticed too late that the recipe yields 9 fondants (why 9?) - by then, we had prepared half a recipe and filled 2 1/2 moulds with the resulting mixture. This resulted in much longer baking times (15 minutes +), which, again, is something we only figured out later. Not the best premises.

We served it with cranberry sauce, which was a good choice. Caramel sauce and sweet ice cream only would have added even more sugar.
