Absolutely fantastic! I learned so much from this tutorial. Thanks for sharing your vast knowledge with us. I too would love to see more classes on using chocolate. Thanks
This is Amazing, very creative! Thank you Mr. Yener.
Amazing! -like all Your cakes!
Wow! Very informative. How long can a cake like this be left out at the venue?
It is all depends on the room temperature and what kind of cake inside. Right cake in 20-24 degree, time is not an issue.Thanks
Mesmerizing! Learned a lot!
How do you not stress when you have such a beauty to transport to a client’s location?
Chef Yener… You must have nerves of steel!!!!
Wowww!
No, I am also scared. We must only take a break, think what could have happened and take precaution before taking off. I have always frozen plastic water bottles stand by to tie inside the box with a wire. That solves the heat problem. What left is not racing with other cars.. Beside that my cakes first aid box is always in the car.
Wow that is amazing, I would love to try this, but have never work with chocolate before. Thank you for the tutorial love it.
all I have to say is that, this tutorial is WONDERFULL.
as chocolate is my favorite material, you have enriched my world of knowledge with many tools & techniques.
I would love to watch more tutorials using chocolate as the main material.
Thank you so much, for sharing your extensive knowledge and experience, so that people like me, can benefit from it.
Thank you so much and god bless you.

Chef Yener…I am having trouble viewing this video. It stops every 2 secs…Please look into tis. Thank you.
A GREAT tutorial. I learned a lot from your tutorial. Keep up the good job! Thanks so much for sharing it.
Thank you so much for this class, loved it. Can you please let me know if this can be done with white or white/coloured chocolate? is it not strong enough?
Also, I work with chocolate already few times but my problem is it tarnish (loose colour act) with in 1 day out side or even in the fridge, is it because I don’t temper well?
Thank you again 😉
First reason for that as you said tempering. Another reason is every time you place your chocolate in the fridge and take it out to room temperature ,condensation on the surface turns dull when dried again. Try to keep your cake in air condition till delivered. Of course, only the cream you use is possible to keep so long without refrigeration.
Thank you for your reply. Also can i use white chocolate for similar project? or is it not strong enough? thank you again.
Yes , you can use also white chocolate. It will be strong enough.
Fantastic, creative, informative and I feel very motivated. Thank you Mr Yener, I feel privileged for you to be my tutor.
me to
Wow, I am so looking forward to this. I have never worked with chocolate, however, this looks absolutely amazing….. and I am sure you will teach us even more than we expect, as you usually do.
