What the original account establishes
These notes distinguish the recorded result from quantities or settings the contributor did not specify. Follow each source link to the original passage.
- The mould came from a triangular profiterole box lined with foil, with a foil base mould for the peaks to stand on. Each triangle took 200 g of chocolate and the base 300 g, melted and mixed with pink and white nougat before pouring and chilling; the peaks were pressed into the freshly poured base and held until set. The contributors note that they forgot the honey, and the number of triangles is not stated in the text. Source 1 · Source 2 · Source 3 · Source 4

Each triangle takes 200g of chocolate and the base is 300g. Melt the chocolate using your favourite method. Once melted add in the nougat, now for this pimp we had to use white and pink, so this pimp is a little girly!! (for Georgie and Clare).

First stage is to line the box with silver foil, and shape a mould, making the sides to hold the chocolate. We then made a base mould for all the triangles to sit on, out of foil.

The original account
At last we have done a pimp that no one else has submitted, first we were going to pimp a Lion Bar, but then on checking the site on 20th April, not one but two Lion Bars!!! So back to the drawing board, what could we do…. And then it came to us, and After Eight Mint, then two days into the planning, ahhhhhhhh.
So we then had a crisis meeting, what could we do…….. it came to us, a TOBLERONE.
First things first, how do we get the triangular shape, luckily that evening we were having profiterole’s and they came in a triangular box, perfect for the pimp.
First stage is to line the box with silver foil, and shape a mould, making the sides to hold the chocolate. We then made a base mould for all the triangles to sit on, out of foil.
Each triangle takes 200g of chocolate and the base is 300g. Melt the chocolate using your favourite method. Once melted add in the nougat, now for this pimp we had to use white and pink, so this pimp is a little girly!! (for Georgie and Clare).
Now pour the mixture into your triangle mould and chill, do this for all your triangular moulds.
Next to put it all together, again melting your chocolate and adding the nougat, pour the mixture into the base mould and then press the triangles into this and hold until set. At this point you will need many hands!!
Just realised we didn’t put any honey in!!, Doesn’t matter, honey is supposed to be good for you, we don’t want that do we??
The finished Toblerone, it’s going to take some eating!!
