Toya’s Pastry World

Dessert trend that I recently spotted: Chocolate Bowls!
A friend sent me a You tube video of a do-it-yourself Chocolate Bowl
“how to” made with balloons. I did my research and discovered that
you can also make Chocolate Bowls with ice! I think this is a trend
that should not go unnoticed! These bowls are not only tasty, they’re
extraordinarily savvy and sophisticated. I decided to compliment my
first attempt with Chocolate Bowls with Ice cream, but you can add
fruit, frosting, pastry or whipped cream, cake, and mousse. I
personally melted chocolate chips, and used this Wilton product to
make smaller and individual sized bowls for a perfect round shape.
This would be the perfect Valentine’s Day treat for an intimate dinner
or romantic dinner for two. Pinterest has several ideas, recipes, and
creative photos for this trend. Impress your sweetheart by following
these easy instructions if you’d like to create your own, or search for
