Franui-style raspberry, white chocolate and ruby chocolate bites
We're continuing our Franui recipes and this time, we're going for a sweet and spicy combination: raspberries, a white chocolate coating and a ruby chocolate finishing touch. All homemade and easy to make :) It's the kind of little delicacy we love to take out of the freezer for a quick treat!
Ingredients
Materials
- Wooden picks
- Parchment paper
Preparation
Place raspberries in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before use.
*If you freeze them for longer, remember to space them out.
Melt the white chocolate.
* You can melt it in the microwave (2 x 30 seconds) or in a water bath.
Pierce a raspberry with a wooden pick and dip into the white chocolate.
Place the coated raspberry on a plate or sheet of parchment paper, then repeat with the remaining raspberries. Place in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.
Melt the ruby chocolate in the microwave or water bath.
Prick a raspberry with a wooden pick and dip into the ruby chocolate.
Place the coated raspberry on a sheet of parchment paper and do the same with all the raspberries. Place in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.
And now it's ready!
Observations
Should I freeze raspberries before coating them in chocolate?
Yes, it's best to freeze the raspberries before coating them. This allows the white and then the ruby chocolate to congeal quickly around the fruit, preventing it from softening.
Which white chocolate should I use to coat raspberries?
It's best to use white pastry chocolate for this recipe. It's less sweet and easier to melt.
How do I melt the chocolate without burning it?
To melt white and ruby chocolate, use a bain-marie or microwave. Note: if you use the microwave, you'll need to melt the chocolate gradually in 30-second increments, stirring each time to obtain a smooth texture and prevent the chocolate from forming grains.
Can ruby chocolate be replaced by another type of chocolate?
Yes, you can replace it with dark or milk chocolate. Dark chocolate adds a more intense, full-bodied note (and is less sweet!), while milk chocolate makes the recipe softer (and sweeter!).
How to store Franui?
Store Franui in the freezer in an airtight container to prevent them from absorbing moisture. Take them out of the freezer a few minutes before eating, so that they are slightly crunchy but not too hard. They can be stored for up to 2 weeks without altering taste or texture.
