For perfectly smooth and shiny chocolate, we recommend tempering it with a temperature probe following this temperature curve: raise it to 55-58°C, then lower it to 28-29°C and finally quickly raise it to 31-32°C. To make it even easier to handle, use a bain-marie for tempering. Caribbean 66% dark chocolate pairs perfectly with dried fruits such as almonds or pecans, but also spices like cinnamon or vanilla.
