Step-by-Step Guide to Make Shiny Chocolate Bonbons
Making shiny chocolate bonbons is easier than it looks when you have the right tools, a clean mold, and properly tempered chocolate. This step-by-step guide will help you create professional results at home or in your workshop. All our Chocolate World, Pavoni Italia, and Martellato molds are BPA-free and food-safe.
1. Gather Your Tools
- High-quality polycarbonate molds or Tritan™ praline molds
- Tempered chocolate (dark, milk, or white)
- Bench scraper and offset spatula
- Infrared thermometer or chocolate tempering machine
- Optional: colored cocoa butter for decoration
2. Clean and Polish the Molds
- Ensure molds are completely clean and dry.
- Polish with a soft cloth or cotton pad to remove fingerprints and dust.
- Even small marks can prevent your bonbons from releasing shiny.
3. Temper Your Chocolate
Tempered chocolate is essential for a shiny finish. If you don’t have a tempering machine, use the seeding method:
- Melt 2/3 of your chocolate to the recommended temperature (around 45°C for dark).
- Add the remaining 1/3 finely chopped chocolate and stir until it cools to 27–28°C.
- Gently reheat to 31–32°C for perfect temper.
4. Fill and Tap the Mold
- Pour tempered chocolate into the cavities.
- Tap gently to remove air bubbles.
- Scrape excess chocolate with a bench scraper for a clean edge.
5. Create the Shell and Add Filling
- Invert the mold to create a thin chocolate shell.
- Once crystallized, fill with your favorite ganache or praline.
- Seal with more tempered chocolate and scrape to finish.
6. Demold and Enjoy
- Chill briefly for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate sets.
- Gently tap or twist the mold to release your shiny bonbons.
- Store in a cool, dry place for perfect shine and snap.

Excellent Speciality Baking/ Chocolatier Shoppe
In searching for a certain product locally, I came across Zucchero’s website. I was delighted to find speciality Italian baking items locally that were not available at our Italian shoppes. Initial contact was via web chat to find out more about the company and products. For those interested, there is no storefront but a warehouse that is located in a Sentinal Storage bay. Local pickup for free is available: When the order is ready, one is given an email for a pickup time. Once at the Storage lobby, one would call the Zucchero rep to pick up the order, as the shortage lobby reception is different than Zucchero. Kati was awesome! Very knowledgeable, friendly, and customer focused. We even purchased a few more items while there, as seen some things we needed. Items were all new. Kati also provided us some chocolate samples for my pandoro/ panettone projects (will try out soon). Thanks again for all the help, as am learning different hobby baking projects.
