Nama Chocolate (生チョコレート)

This is Japanese chocolate, made from chocolate, cream and alcohol (brandy, wine, whisky…etc.). It tastes really soft and smooth, just melts on your tongue. It is a little similar to Ganache and Truffle.

My husband always says to me he wants to try this Japanese chocolate, so I decided to make it for him. This recipe is really easy and simple, and I believe everyone will enjoy it.

What chocolate I used?

I used milk chocolate and mixed it with dark chocolate, if you don’t like it too bitter just us a little less or just use milk chocolate that would be fine.

For children

This nama chocolate if you want to make for children, I would like to suggest to you, only use milk chocolate and add 15g Glucose syrup into it, because this recipe is not very sweet. And don’t add whisky.

Before you cut it, turn on the low heat and warm your knife first, it would be easier to cut it. Every time you cut it, please wipe your knife first then cut it again.
