chocolate lab
this time of year has a way of bringing out one's inner martha determined to do whatever it takes to whip up a handmade sugarplum wonderland. if holiday plans call for testing your truffle making skills, do click over to the big island's cocoa outlet which is the source for professional confectioners and just happens to have an online shop open to the public.
you'll find everything you need from fine european chocolates (callebaut & valrhona, natch) to cake decorations and cool contraptions like textured rolling pins that embellish fondants with pretty patterns. and, if you really want to up your pastry game, the cocoa outlet offers the occasional class to expand every dreamy cake designer's repertoire of sweet techniques.
bon appétit!
