Pimp That Snack

Everest Toblerone

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.

Stack of plain chocolate bars, a pack of Barratt nougat and an opened normal 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.

Eight large triangular moulds folded from kitchen foil, lined up on the worktop

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).

Melted chocolate in a steel bowl with chopped pink and white nougat stirred in

Now pour the mixture into your triangle mould and chill, do this for all your triangular moulds.

Molten chocolate poured from the bowl into a foil triangle mould set in a baking tray

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!!

Set chocolate triangles stood upright in a foil-lined tray and joined with more melted chocolate

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!!
