Piped-Together Curls

Name: Piped-Together Curls
Ingredients: Thinly spread tempered chocolate onto the marble using an offset spatula. Spread the chocolate thin enough so that the marble shows through ever so slightly, but no thinner. If it is spread too thin, the petals will be too fragile to assemble into a flower. Let the chocolate set. This will take about 1 minute for dark chocolate or up to 2 minutes for milk or white chocolate, depending on the temperature of the room and marble.; Place the rosebud into the piped chocolate on one of the Styrofoam squares. One by one, dip the base of each petal into the other pool of chocolate and then place the petals around the rosebud, overlapping each petal slightly over the previous one.

Shaved Flowers

Shaved flowers get their name from the shaving technique used to create the petals. This technique gives a different shape and look to the finished flower.
