Next they poured the molten chocolate into various shapes and designs. From traditional heart-shaped moulds to whimsical animal figures, each creation was unique. Nuts and dry fruits and colourful sprinkles were added in good measure.As they filled the moulds, the room was transformed into a captivating gallery of chocolate art.
As the chocolates solidified, a sense of accomplishment and excitement enveloped the room. The students eagerly waited for the moment when their creations would be ready to taste.
Finally, the time arrived to savour the fruits of their labor. The students gently unmolded their chocolates, revealing intricate designs and smooth textures. The room was soon filled with delightful sounds as the students wrapped each chocolate in delicate wrappers. Sharing doubles the happiness. The mouth-watering assortment of dark and white chocolates was distributed to all the students and teachers. It was such a delight to see everyone relishing a tiny bit of heaven in the form of chocolates.
