Fruit flavor filling is too subtle
July 20th - via: kickstarter.com
Observed reaction test on the black raspberry chocolate dome filling. While the consistency was perfect, the raspberry was hidden behind the white chocolate. Easy fix. Caramel is just about done. We'll amp up the fruit filling in the white... (Read More)

Caramel and Fruit Flavors
July 16th - via: kickstarter.com
Hello Backers: I think I've managed to get very close to a very good, firm, carmel, that is not loose like an ice cream topping. But, it is not yet workable enough to become an inclusion. Close though. My attempt with the allulose caramel/fruity... (Read More)

July 13th - via: kickstarter.com
Finally, we have a version that may stand up to the test for a viable inclusion. I used a pure orange juice powder to avoid reintroducing any moisture. It tasted great. Tomorrow I'll try black raspberry and plain caramel. Tell your friends about... (Read More)

Progress! June 29th Update 3
June 29th - via: kickstarter.com
Hello backers. The right consistency was achieved this past weekend. However, while this iteration was initially successful, the butter separated as the caramel rested. It appeared as spots on the surface of the caramel. Still, I'm excited about the... (Read More)

June 24th - via: kickstarter.com
Thanks for a very good first day start. We received $2,400 of our $16,273 goal and I am thrilled! Started creating iterations of allulose sweetened caramel for our chocolate inclusion and infusion. Allulose did not disappoint. It's a little too wet... (Read More)
