      Единый, могучий Советский Союз!
      Славься, Отечество наше свободное,
      Дружбы, народов надежный оплот!

      Сквозь грозы сияло нам солнце свободы,
      И Ленин великий нам путь озарил.
      Нас вырастил Сталин - на верность народу
      На труд и на подвиги нас вдохновил.

    the chocolate you made is more similar to the Modica Chocolate which is a typical product of Sicily, rather than the Lindt bar that you snapped at the beginning. Modica Chocolate is not tempered, it uses coarse, granulated sugar and is much much simpler than regular commercial chocolate; it also comes in tens of different varieties like: spicy chili, black or white pepper, vanilla, pistacho, cinnamon, orange or lemon zest. Modica Chocolate is much coarser and rougher than regular chocolate, you can almost taste every individual granule of sugar and the additional ingredients doesn't hit you until you reach the aftertaste. It's a very deep and complex flavor.

  • @PDA01

    Just a quick disclaimer for everyone trying to follow this video: This won't work. Let me explain you why:
    - You can't blend cocoa nibs like this if you don't own an absolute beast of a blender. You will need to add fat in form of molten (!) cocoa butter or coconut oil in order to make a paste like shown in the video - otherwise you're blender is going to break. Trust me, mine almost did.
    - That is not nearly enough sugar. If you want an edible chocolate, the ratio of cocoa to sugar should at least be 70:30.
    - If you want your chocolate to have a snap, you'll need to temper it.
    Talking about tempering, it's kinda odd that he didn't temper it and still it has a snap. How can that be? Well, because it's faked. Look at the mold at 2:55 and the mold 2:59, the chocolate around the corner looks different and also the chocolate is way smoother all of a sudden.

    Great content! 👏🏻 You didn’t make it half an hour long, you don’t just repeat the same things over and over because you just saw it on Tiktok and know little about it, and you don’t scream everything just to put your point across. 👍🏼
    Here we have cacao trees in every home with a yard. What we do is ferment it for a week (tip: the longer you ferment it, the better it’s aroma), dry them under the Sun (most families don’t have an oven), separate the nibs and blend. We put the paste in boiling water and drink it like coffee. Some add sugar or milk. And it’s amazing!💖
