Measure out all the ingredients using a digital scales or use cups and spoons making sure that they are only filled to the level (not heaped). Add the caster sugar into a small to medium size saucepan and add the liquid glucose, cream of tartar, pinch of fine salt and the water. I prefer to use white sugar for this recipe, as it’s neutral and the flavour comes out the best. I wouldn’t recommend using strongly flavoured sugars such as coconut sugar unless it works with your chosen flavour (for example rich coconut or caramel flavour) Glucose After more than 20 years, Quality Street fans can experience the indulgent coffee flavour fondant wrapped in dark chocolate in stores starting from 20th September at Waitrose.

Of course it’s a vegan product so you can indulge yourselves without a hint of guilt, while the chocolate is made with FairTrade cocoa. It’s usually used for whipping egg whites, but in our recipe, we need it because it prevents the sugar crystals to re-crystalise and keeps our coffee fondant creams lovely and creamy! There’s so much more to these coffee cream sweet treats than the ingredients list, but let’s go through the composition of these delicious coffee creams. It’s difficult to gauge how much to add, especially as every flavouring is a slightly different strength. The sugar syrup will be very hot at this stage, so please don’t be tempted to taste it.

Why do chocolate and coffee go together?

I’ve always considered peppermint creams as a bit old fashioned type of confectionery until recently when I got asked for the recipe on several occasions and thought: ‘maybe there is more to these than I originally thought!’

What we are sure of is that these delicious chocolate coffee creams, suitable for vegans, will be the best you’ve ever tasted! Nope – and it’s not just home-grown coffee cream lovers who are left empty-handed. Fans in Australia and New Zealand buying tins or jars for birthdays or Christmas also don’t get to sink their teeth into that tasty chocolate covered coffee centre. Do coffee creams contain cocoa butter or cocoa mass? To make your own coffee flavouring, use about 2 teaspoons of instant coffee granules with about 1 teaspoon (or little more) of boiling water. Stir to dissolve and add in about 2-4 teaspoons (depending on how strong you want your coffee creams to be). This will depend on the size of your coffee fondant creams, but if you use size slightly bigger than a sugared almonds or like a date size – slightly flattened, you will have approximately of 40-50 coffee creams with this recipe. Can I scale up or down this recipe? We know, we know – it’s a tragedy! Savouring that delicious chocolate coffee cream taste, the process of allowing a rich, creamy filling to melt in your mouth has to be one of life’s most amazing pleasures.Fondant creams do have a very long shelf life, and I have kept them for much longer than 4 weeks. What I’ve noticed is that sugar texture starts to dry out after few weeks and the texture is more crumbly, but the flavour was still fine. This recipe and me Next step is to temper dark or milk chocolate. We do need to temper chocolate to make sure that our fondant creams look perfect and without any white streaks.

They are usually dipped in chocolate and sold as traditional confectionery. Traditional flavours also include violet or rose. So imagine how disappointed we were, the last time we received a chocolate gift box, to find our favourite coffee flavour missing in action. Does Quality Street have chocolate coffee creams? Dip the coffee creams to fully cover and decorate with pieces of ground coffee, cocoa nibs or a drizzle of white chocolate.Doubling up this recipe is a little easier, but do bear in mind that you’ll need to adjust all of these (up!) Getting your coffee chocolates delivered to your house or a friend or loved one – even outside the UK – couldn’t be easier. I’ve also used a bit of alcohol instead of water when I needed to make the sugar syrup more pliable just before I rolled it to create this confectionery. Fondant 63.6% (sugar, glucose syrup, water), dark chocolate 36% (cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, emulsifier: soya lecithin), coffee flavour, colour: plain caramel, stabiliser: invertase.
