For my birthday, D got me the gift of one-up-manship

[kaberett]

... or more specifically, for reasons which this margin is too small to contain, got me to buy myself a dinosaur chocolate mould/ice-cube tray, and made me dinosaur chocolates with ludicrous ganache. And then there was ganache and a paintbrush over, and so I have spent this evening tentatively experimenting with, you got it, making dinosaur chocolates.

My housemate appears to find it both entertaining and charming, however, that I am the kind of person who will exclaim NEVER AGAIN WILL I BE FORCED TO RELY ON MAINSTREAM CHOCOLATIERS FOR CHOCOLATE DINOSAURS like it's, er, completely normal.

So these dinosaurs are, er, ganaching their teeth?

Are these solid dinosaurs? How large are they? Pics or didn't happen!

heee they are in fact solid and they are smallish and I will take some damn' photos when I decant the next lot ;) (They've finished cooling but I'm not allowed to distract myself with more chocolating faff until I've written up counselling prep...)
