One of my favorite flavors to pair with chocolate is coffee, and in this particular bonbon, we've perfected this heavenly combination. This is an Okinawan black sugar and coffee bonbon, made with a rich and smooth cold brew coffee ganache.
The Magic of Cold Brew Coffee
Cold brew coffee is truly amazing. Unlike traditional hot brewing methods, cold brew involves steeping coffee grounds in water (or cream, in our case) for an extended period, often overnight. This process extracts the flavors beautifully, pulling out all the astringency and bitterness, resulting in a stronger and bolder coffee flavor without the harsh notes.
A Secret Tip from Twisted Sister Bakeshop
This cold brew technique is a trick we borrowed from Twisted Sister Bakeshop, and it's essential in making our coffee bonbon extraordinary. By steeping the cream with ground coffee, we create a base that is both rich and smooth, perfect for our ganache.
The Unique Flavor of Okinawan Black Sugar
To balance the boldness of the cold brew coffee, we add a hint of sweetness with Okinawan black sugar. This brown sugar from Japan is cooked into a syrup, imparting a molasses-like flavor that lightens and enhances the overall profile of the ganache.
Making the Perfect Ganache
Once we've created our cold brew cream, we use it to craft the ganache. The combination of robust coffee and the unique sweetness of Okinawan black sugar results in a complex, multi-layered flavor that is irresistible.
Why You Should Try It
This chocolate coffee bonbon is something you truly must experience. The boldness of the coffee, the smoothness of the ganache, and the unique sweetness of the Okinawan black sugar all come together to create a luxurious treat that will delight any chocolate and coffee lover.
