A few interesting things

For one of my dishes, I wanted to add flavor without adding food, so I've been making my own lip balms for the customer to apply prior to eating the dish. The primary food is cauliflower and the lip balms come in cocoa, caraway or geranium. It gets mixed reactions but more to the concept than the flavor. The lip balms are bees wax based with a bit of Vitamin E, cocoa butter and essential oil.

At a recent tasting dinner the salad was dressed with cacao infused black truffle vodka. Huge hit!

Here is my new chocolate bar mold. This one contained peanut praliné with nori and soy sauce.
