The ones being made were rose creams, a traditional flower based cream made with natural flavouring, dipped in chocolate and topped with a candied rose petal. The cream filling is made from a special powdered sugar not cream. This was rolled into a thin log shape and some melted chocolate spread along it. When the chocolate was set the log was cut into pieces, having this layer of chocolate makes it easier for each piece to be picked up on a fork for dipping into tempered chocolate.
There were numerous stalls selling all sorts of chocolate based goodies, both sweet and savoury and plenty of samples to try. Highlights for me were the rose cream I saw being made, a salted caramel from artisan du chocolat, and an Earl Grey truffle from Ooh La La Choclaterie Ltd .
