flowers. To start with you're going to need a rolling pin or something round, two thin

首先你要準備一隻擀麵棍或是一個圓球形的東西，兩張裁窄一點的

strips of baking paper, some melted chocolate, sticky tape and a Ziploc bag.

烘焙紙，一些融化的巧克力，透明膠帶及夾鏈袋

Pour your chocolate into the Ziploc bag and then cut off one corner. Start with a small

將巧克力倒入夾鏈袋並將袋子剪一個缺角。剛做的時候缺角剪的小一點

cut because you can always make it bigger if it's too small. I'll show you a few different

如果太小你隨時可以加大。我教你做幾種不同

petals. First of all pipe some circles in a row on the baking paper. And then I like

的花瓣。首先在烘焙紙上擠出一排圓點狀巧克力，接著

to put the bag of chocolate into a bowl to stop it tipping out just bend the tip upwards.

把裝巧克力的袋子放到碗裡，將缺口朝上折以避免巧克力流出來。

Take a second sheet of baking paper and place it over the top of your chocolate and then

另外拿一張烘焙紙蓋在已擠好的巧克力上面，然後用

using your thumb or your finger, push the chocolate upwards making it into a petal shape.

大拇指或是其他指頭將巧克力朝上推展開塑成花瓣的形狀

Then peel the top sheet off, and this makes them very thin so they have that petal-like

將上方的烘焙紙撕下，這樣可以使巧克力片變得很薄看起來更像花瓣

look to them. And then place the sheet over the rolling pin so that the petals curl around

然後把烘焙紙放在擀麵棍上，這樣花瓣才會有弧度

and then once they set carefully peel them off the paper.

等巧克力硬化後小心地從烘焙紙上取下來

For a second time, pipe some circles of chocolate and this time spread them out using a spoon

第二次作的時候，先擠一些圓點狀巧克力這次要用湯匙來推展

to make them elongated and then cover them as before. Make sure you are using tempered

使它們變成狹長型接下來的步驟就和前面一樣。要確定你用的是調溫巧克力

chocolate; otherwise your petals are going to melt just as soon as you take them out

否則你做好的花瓣一拿出冰箱就會融化了

of the fridge. If you're not sure what tempered chocolate is then click on the link in the

如果你不知道什麼是調溫巧克力可以點這部影片下面的連結

description below this video to go to the chocolate playlist and in there you will find

在巧克力清單上你可以找到

a video on how to temper chocolate and another video on what chocolate to use for chocolate

一部影片教你如何做調溫巧克力，以及另一部影片告訴你應該用哪種巧克力製作巧克力裝飾品

decorations. This type of petal that we've just made curls over at the top like in a

我們剛才完成的花瓣的弧度會使它看起來

flower that has been open for awhile

好像已經是盛開一會兒了

The third type of petals that we are going to make are the smaller ones that you'll need

第三種要做的花瓣要比較小一點

for the center of your flower. For those place a circle of chocolate on your baking paper

它會放在花朵的中央。和前面的步驟一樣先擠一些圓點狀巧克力到烘焙紙上

as you did before, spread them out using a spoon and then a second sheet of baking paper

用湯匙推展開後用另一張烘焙紙

over the top and spread them out. Peel it off to make them thin, then put another sheet

蓋在上面再用手推展一次。將烘焙紙撕下來使巧克力花瓣變得更薄，接著再用一張烘焙紙

of baking paper over the top and roll it up into a tube and use some sticky tape to keep

蓋在上面然後捲成圓筒狀，用透明膠帶把它黏住

it in that tube shape and then just allow it to set. And then when you take them off

讓它可以保持不會變形。當你從烘焙紙上取下它們的時候

the baking paper you can see that you've got those tight smaller petals for the center

就可以看到這些將要放在花朵中心

of your flower.

緊實的小花瓣

To put your flower together use a cookie cutter ring and place a dollop of chocolate in the

準備一個圓形的餅乾模型器來將完整的花朵放在上面，擠一小陀巧克力在中心點

middle and then starting with the outer bigger petals, put them around the edge, usually

然後順著模具邊緣先放大片的花瓣在外圈，通常

4 or 5 petals is ideal. Then I'm going to use the petals that curl over a little bit

放四或五片就很完美了。接著我要用稍微有弧度的花瓣

on the next row and then the smaller tighter chocolate petals right in the center. If you

放在第二圈然後是最小的花瓣在中央。如果

don't have a cookie cutter ring that's circle like that, you can just improvise and use

你沒有像影片中的圓形餅乾模型，你可以用紙巾捲起來

some paper towel rolled into a circle or anything that you have that that's sort of shape just

做成一個圓形或任何材料可以做成圓形的都行

to give the petals some support while the chocolate is setting.

主要是做花朵的時候可以撐住花瓣

Once the chocolate is set you can take your flowers and place them where you needed them.

花朵完成後你可以拿起來放在任何地方

For example in this one is on top of the chocolate cake.

例如這個是放在巧克力蛋糕上
