How to Make Triple Chocolate Mini Loaves:
For the Sponge
- Preheat the oven to 160*C (fan) and grease a mini loaf mould, using melted butter
- Mix together the butter and sugar, until pale
- Add the flour, Cacao Barry Noir cocoa powder, baking powder, and ground almonds, mixing until a paste is formed
- Add the egg, milk and vanilla, stirring until fully combined
- Add the melted Premium Dark Compound Coating and mix until dispersed
- Pour the batter into the loaf tin, and bake at 160*C, for 15-20 minutes
- After 15 minutes, test the bake with a skewer
- Once baked, take out of the oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack
- Once fully cooled, decorate and store in an airtight container
For the Topping
- Gently warm the 811 Crema in the microwave for around 10-20 seconds (850W)
- Transfer into a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, and whip until aerated slightly
- Place the icing in a piping bag with a piping nozzle of choice and pipe on to the cooled, baked sponges
- TIP: Add Spice Drops of your choice to create a whole new flavour experience!
