We recently decided to make our own chocolates after stumbling across a YouTube video. We had a blast - we borrowed a tempering machine from a friend and bought some molds from Amazon and we made our own peanut butter cups, genaches, sea salt caramels...it was a ton of fun. A ton of work, too!

But I really grew to respect how much effort it takes to temper chocolate, it's a labor of love. I also now realize how much of a ripoff boxes of chocolates are. And being able to control the light/dark mix, filling, etc., was really cool. I highly recommend trying this some time.
