chocolate!
The first chocolates are dairy free, as long as you can find some good quality vegan chocolate. Previously I had made some quince paste (quinces, sugar and lemon juice...sorry, I didn't measure...) and cooled the paste in some chocolate moulds. Then I removed the quince paste (which looked quite pretty even just by itself) and placed it back into the moulds, and then I poured over some dark chocolate, melted at bain- marie. The quince paste must be removed first from the moulds if you like the melted chocolate to run through and fully coat the fruit filling.
And now something much easier!!!
I toasted some hazelnuts and peeled them. I made a 'shell' with melted dark chocolate (70%) and put a hazelnut inside. I waited for the chocolate shells to set and then I filled them with a little bit of nutella (or similar chocolate-hazelnut paste, you can even find some vegan types or make your own), and covered the lot with more dark chocolate, to seal the filling in. Very easy!
