Ciocolata, lapte si caramel
Ciocolata, lapte si caramel – textura
Ciocolata, lapte si caramel – spate
In perioada cand am creat acest tablou aveam o pofta nebuna de ciocolata 😀 . Pofta s-a materializat in faptul ca eu si Dany (sufletul meu pereche 😉 ) faceam cate o tava de ciocolata de casa la aproximativ patru zile! Da… topeam o tava de cioco in patru zile!! Era delicioasa, avea o textura lucioasa si o culoare inchisa, senzuala (puneam multa cacao, pe care o alegeam special, nedegresata). Vorbesc la trecut pentru ca, dupa tavi si tavi de ciocolata de casa, am ajuns la saturatie si ne-am oprit (pfiu ce bine, ca incepusem sa iau in greutate .. hehe).
Am creat singura nuanta ciocolatei, amestecand diferite culori. Aveam in inima o nuanta specifica si a trebuit sa ma relaxez, sa o las sa vina la mine, pana cand mi-a iesit! Culorile folosite reflecta lumina, asa cum se observa in cele doua fotografii.
Sincer tabloul ar trebui sa se numeasca Ciocolata cu frisca si caramel, insa nu mi-am ascultat destul de bine inima la vremea respectiva si am scris pe spate Ciocolata, lapte si caramel :D… (perfectionista din mine tipa si da din picior!!!). Ei, nu conteaza titlul.. gustul ramane delicios!
Pofta buna!
PS Reteta ciocolatei de casa care ne-a torturat ani de zile o gasiti AICI, pe blogul prietenei mele Adina, cu precizarea ca noi o faceam simpla (fara alune sau altceva), foloseam cacao nedegresata Schmidt 😉 si unt de la Albalact (tipul ingredientelor chiar conteaza!!).
At the time I’ve created ”Chocolate, milk and caramel” I had a crazy chocolate craving :D. That craving materialized in the fact that me and Dany (my soul mate 😉 ) used to make a whole chocolate tray every four days! Yep… we used to devour a whole tray in just a few days! It was delicious; it had a glossy texture and a dark sensual color (we added a lot of a special brand of cacao). I say ”used to” because after trays and trays of chocolate, we finally stopped (thank God… I was beginning to gain weight… hehe).
The hue of the chocolate in the painting is created by me, mixing different colors. I had a special nuance in my heart and had to relax and let it come to me! The used colors reflect the light, as seen in the pictures above.
Honestly, the painting should be called ”Cream and caramel chocolate”, but at that time I wasn’t listening to my heart entirely, and so I wrote on the back a different title (the perfectionist inside me is kicking and screaming!!!) Well, the title doesn’t matter so much; after all, the taste remains delicious!
Bon Appetite!
PS You can find the homemade chocolate’s recipe that ”tortured” us for years here, on my friends Adina’s blog, with the specification that we used to make it simple, without hazelnuts or anything.
To Heaven!
The road to heaven isn’t paved with sorrow,
In spite of what a lot of us may think!
The marking of the path we need to follow:
The simple crumb of the next joyous thing!
You are unique and what you like is precious,
But, be aware, don’t make the same mistake.
`Cause choosing pleasure over joy is vicious,
The promise is as empty as its fake.
