AD | The edible Nespresso capsule! To celebrate @nespresso.uk Black Friday deal - they challenged me to make an edible Nespresso capsuleā¦easy peasy right?! 30 broken capsules later and I finally got it š! Using some of the Vertuo Plus capsules, I created a mold which I lined with a pearl lustre spray and blue cocoa butter. Then I filled it with all those classic tiramisu flavours including a coffee soaked jaconde sponge! I thought about finishing the video and putting the capsule in the machine but you know that would be a bad idea š¤£ Iāve been drinking Nespresso foreverrrr and this Black Friday deal is š„ Nespresso VertuoPlus machines are reduced to Ā£89, accompanied with 100 complimentary coffee capsules, and a two month coffee subscription!

The Magic š± Ball! Wellā¦kinda not so magic as if you shake it, it will explode and youāll get a face full of blueberry compote. This one was a real rollercoaster - trying to get that little white dot perfectly round in the middle took about 2,503 attempts and I still only got one to work!! Iām glad this one is done though - Iām a bit mehhhh about it. Itās annoying that the mold had a ālipā on it, so the ball isnāt perfectly smooth and melting the two half spheres together meant that you could see the seam. All a bit too messy for my liking š£ But, I basically created the whole thing from scratch with stickers, a ring mold and some foil so Iām happy with that. I filled it with a blueberry compote, mascarpone whipped cream and a vanilla streusel. The filling was sooooo good š¤¤ I just wish Iād had a pool cue, then I couldāve made a white ball from white chocolate and knocked the two together at the end š

Introducing to you, the all new, 2019 official, 100% Edible Apple iPhone 11 phone case š¤£ Is it shock resistant? No. Does it fit the phone perfectly? Debatable. It is heat proof? Absolutely not. BUT...it is 100% edible so who cares about all those features anyways š This week I got the most incredible toy from @teammayku *gifted* - who sent me their table top vacuum former which is a game changer! I used it to form my phone in its case, and build a reusable chocolate mold to test, and test and test š I sprayed it with cocoa butter and then created a chocolate shell. Given that thin shells of chocolate are pretty fragile...the feasibility of it fitting my phone perfectly was always flawed lol. This was just the first go with the Formbox though, but imagine the possibilities š¤Æ And also just wait for the cut at the end of the video š¤£ What do you think @apple - can we stock some for Christmas?!

THE CORN!! š½ 3 weeks spent making this thing! If youāve been following it on my stories, itās been a journey. From figuring out how to mold a corn to making it yellow, to crafting the leavesā¦wow. Now, there is one issue in that I made the chocolate shell wayyyy too thick. Because my gelatine mold came out of the fridge, the moment I poured chocolate into it, it kept setting so fast that I ended up with a shell that was much thicker than it shouldāve been (I dare say itās borderline inedible š„“) But I couldnāt bring myself to make another mold and start over, so thick it is! I wanted to curl the leaves too so that they were āpeelingā away but after smashing about 6 I gave up š¤£ I tried to stick with the ācorn/popcornā theme and went for a brown butter frangipane, whipped salted caramel cream and a vanilla mousse. Frankly, once Iād made the shell I couldāve filled it with soil and I wouldāve been happy! So anyways, here it is, AT LAST!

Wellā¦I think I mightāve just designed the new Autumn/Winter Yeezys in bright orange š¤£Wowwwwā¦I made the chocolate decoration and I was like āMatt this is aggressively large and aggressively orangeā but then I thought, can I realllllly be bothered to make them again. Nope. So here it is, the new chocolate orange Yeezys. Despite looking like some mildly futuristic sneaker - the flavours were š¤Æ I decided to try confit orange peel and it blew my mindddd. Iāve only ever added orange zest to flavour something āorangeyā but confit orange peel is NEXT LEVEL! Itās a mascarpone mousse with a dark chocolate hazelnut brownie topped with confit orange peel.

AD | Itās a lemon finger..or a Swiss cheese finger, one of the two but I canāt quite decide! Iām back with @mrscrimbles and this time we whipped up this lemon dessert using her Classic French Madeleines. I sliced them up and layered them with a citrus crumble, tangy lemon curd and a lemon cream. Then I decided to cover all that beauty up with a white chocolate cage š I felt some serious guilt cutting through this one, the cage was so perfect!! You can find the Classic French Madeleines if you pop down the free from aisle in your supermarket. Click the link in my bio for the full recipe! #MrsCrimbles #ActsOfCakeyness #Ad
