❝ Chocolate Soil Profile ❞

Well, got bored of life one day and created this a m a z i n g new recipe (ok not really a recipe but more of an idea) o((*^▽^*))o and Marcus was kind enough to join me on my retarded project cause we are fun people / slackers who do not care about studying like that :D

Basically the idea was to create a soil profile from chocolate (+ other edible stuff). Got inspired by a Cooking with Heston video that Marcus shared with me where Heston made this edible "soil" (which was essentially chocolate).

Anyway who the hell gives a damn about what I say; just look at the bloody photos hehe:

Mixing with a wooden spatula (that was wrecked) because we did not have a hand whisk


And the final product:

Side view- not the most brilliant photo but still, you can see the individual layers (well, sort of)

The white chocolate fudge rocks, which were absolutely awesome I swear:
