MALINKO BONBONS

500g raspberry purée
500g sugar
50g Glucose
385g MILK BAHIBE 46%
150g European style butter
1200g RASPBERRY INSPIRATION

Cook the purée, sugar and glucose at 104°C (220°F). Stop cooking and let the temperature fall to 75-80°C (165-175°F) . Slowly pour this hot mixture over the melted BAHIBÉ 46% Couverture. Immediately mix using an immersion blender to make a perfect emulsion. As soon as the mixture is at 35°C (95°F) , add the tempered butter and mix in an electric mixer.

Assembly and finishing

Use a spray gun and spray gun mixture which you have pre-set at 85°F (30°C). Partially spray the half-sphere molds.Scrape off any excess and leave to harden.Then use as a mold for the pre-set RASPBERRY INSPIRATION couverture.Turn out and leave to spread for a few moments, then smooth away any excess.Drain the molds by holding them suspended over two rulers. Before they harden completely, trim any excess off the half-spheres. Leave to harden. Use a piping bag to fill the half-spheres with ganache. Make sure that when you do this, the ganache does not reach a temperature of 80°F (28°C).Leave to harden for 24 hours at 60°F (17°C) and a 60% relative humidity level.To seal the chocolate bonbons, use a heat gun to soften the edges of the half-spheres, then close off the hole with some tempered BAHIBÉ. This way, the joints will be seamless.
