"A bad burn" is definately an understatement. I spilled some of that on my index finger and went into shock after a few minutes, almost passing out. Ended up having a burn all the way to the bone, and could not use the finger for a month. So seriously: BE CAREFUL WITH THE HEATED SUGAR!!!
I was making candy fruits for a cake, and while I was taking some of the melted sugar out, it poured on to my skin. Out of instinct and because it was hot, I rip off the sugar from my wrist . It just looked my skin turned a bit pale and there was no blood, but twenty minutes later, I fainted . I woke up and realized I had a second degree burn 3.5 inches long and 2 inches wide since I burned and ripped of my first layer of skin. My left hand was basically useless for a month.
OMG i simply love what you do! i live in France but i grew up in england and you inspired me to open my own cake and dessert cafe/shop in england when i get out of cooking school! thank you so much for everything you do throughout your videos!you have a great talent!
I would substitute the peanuts for walnuts and omit the caramel, and make them slightly smaller. This way I can serve them as a Christmas dessert and not take any attention away from the other foods.
OOOOHHHHH this looks soooooo goooood! I love peanut butter soooo much! I live with my mom, Dad, and two brothers (house of 5) and we go through one of the huge jars of plain creamy peanut butter and one regular sized jar of dark chocolate peanut butter every week!
I'm using my cousins account to comment by the way,she's the one who introduced me to this channel. I'm amazed of ur knowledge of food and artistic skills! ur a truly creative, think outside the box person! I really admire u & I bet u have inspired so many people!
Awesome video! I enjoy all your videos. I have a brain tumor and sometimes when I'm not feeling well I'll be awake in the middle of the night and tonight i just happened to be, and at 4:15ish i received notification that you uploaded your video, so a bad night turned into a pretty good night. I look forward to your videos every week you're extremely talented.
With Jesus' stripes you are healed. Believe this. Please read the living word of God it will help you to have FAITH in all the promises God has given to us through HIS Son. I will pray for you.
i made this lovely dessert and it came out really nicely. I didnt have a spherical mould so i used cupcake liners instead and they worked out perfectly adding that awesome design that cupcake liners have. Thanks again for the recipe
thanks sparklingbeauty101 it actually takes me quite a while to come up with new recipes, then film & edit them. But maybe one day i'll be able to do more than one a week :)
I really enjoy watching your videos, Ann! They keep me totally occupied and entertained during boring office hours! You do a great job and someday I look forward to making some of them.
A good idea for a video is you ask people what their favorite candy is and you can show us a cupcake and frosting recipe and then you put those candies on top :) (like you did with the apps and RUclipsrs)
Now at around 3:15 you said dont touch it or it will stick to you and leave a bad burn, that happened to me at one of my sleepovers. We were gonna melt chocolate since I had strawberries at my house, but we didnt have any so we just used tootsie rolls. I got burned and it atuck. When I washed it off I got a REALLY bad burn and now I still have the scar
Ouch, I'm sorry to hear that! Sugary sauces are super hot so I often try to mention it just so that people don't have to go through the pain that you did :/
I've always wanted to learn how to make chocolate covered coffee beans. If this interests you it might be neat to see chocolate covered coffee beans incorporated into a dessert!
I love your accent it's really cool! Also I love your videos they are so awesome they inspire me to do more things like this 😜 thanks for making amazing videos!
It's amazing seeing how much excess chocolate there ACTUALLY is, even tho it looks like there is none. Many people just leave it like that and it wastes so much chocolate...great tip ann!
You: Now don't touch this cause it's hotter than boiling water. Me: Ah great now I wanna touch it! Maybe if I..... *touches from screen. Ow! Aw shoot how does that always happen to me!??!!
i had something similar at this restaurant calle "ask italian" when i was with my grandfather in lincoln. it was an amazing chocolate fondant cake (not fondant icing, it is a chocolate cake with a soft middle) with a scoop of ice cream covered with a chocolate dome that had warm caramel sauce poured over it. the caramel sauce barely every melted the dome like it shoul, but the dessert was still amazing.
I just made this for Thanksgiving. It is outstanding and everyone loved it. I changed one thing, instead of the peanut brittle inside I just put some chopped peanuts and put a chocolate mousse on top before closing it. Also when she says it is rich she means it!
USE A BALLOON!!! It may sound silly but it works. Blow up balloon. Dunk in chocolate Up to Half way leaving the top bit of the balloon exposed. Let it cool and harden in a fridge. Pierce hole in ballon and let it shrivel down until it's easy to remove. Repeat to create the bass Place chocolate bowl on something hot.. ...and place on other chocolate bowl so it can create a ball. Simples 👌🏻👌🏼👌🏽👌🏾👌🏿
its crazy how you do this stuff and all your tips really help ive made one of my own and my teacher for my baking class was impressed of course i told her that it was you and not me who really made it 😂 thank you
This is an old video and a super bizarre question so I'm sure you won't respond but: why do you just have so much butter??? do you just have a gargantuan tub of it lying around?? or do you go to the store right before you make a video and just buy loads??? does Australian sell butter in larger quantities?? i really want to know
Bakers usually buy stockes from the place that produces the butter, its usually way cheaper than going every,e to the market and buying a kg worth of butter every time (they usually do this with other ingredients that they use often such as eggs, vanilla extracts etc)
Holy moly!!! PLEASE I ASK THIS ON EVERY VIDEO, CAN YOU DO A HARRY POTTER CAKE PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE??!?E!??!??!?!?!??!!???!?!?!??!?!!?!??!?!?!?!??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????????????!!!!!!!!!

thanks Gouravager yes you could do it with nutella. Deadly is not a common term here although I believe indigenous Australians use it for something that is very good.
+marcnel metelus its not the same she is making it with peanut brittle and byron is making it with ice cream and fruits not the same neither how they make it
Hi Ann!! I'd love to see a Doctor Who T.A.R.D.I.S. cake! I loved your Dalek cake and I still have yet to try it, but I'd love to see a T.A.R.D.I.S. next! We're trying to figure out the best recipe for a red velvet T.A.R.D.I.S. cake for our Doctor Who themed wedding and we'd love to see your idea on this! Thanks Ann! Can't wait for Fridays!
I'm so glad you made it with out tree nuts... I'm allergic to them which its so unfortunate because I use to eat them when I was little. That was when I didn't appreciate desserts like I do now😿
I love this, first time i see your channel and your accent is so entertaining, english is not my first language. I'lll hav to make one of these some day. Thanks for such good tutorials
Hi Ann! I'm a thirteen years old swedish girl and I'm a huge fan of your channel. I really love your videos, you make really cool things and you make it very easy to understand exactly how your doing everything and how people can make it themselves. Even though your channel is great, I think it would be very nice if you wrote out the recipe amounts in ml to. That is the measurment we use in sweden and it quite hard to measure stuff out without knowing how many ml your supposed to use. I hope that you can understand what I want (since my spelling and grammar is quite bad) and that it won't be to much trouble for you to do this. Thank you! :-)
hi Ylva Öhrnell i actually include all the measurements on my website because that way all the amounts can be in ml, ounces, cups - all the different measurements used around the world.
"A bad burn" is definately an understatement. I spilled some of that on my index finger and went into shock after a few minutes, almost passing out. Ended up having a burn all the way to the bone, and could not use the finger for a month. So seriously: BE CAREFUL WITH THE HEATED SUGAR!!!
oh no, that's horrible Mabi Alt I'm so sorry that happened to you. Are you ok now?
I was making lollipops for my friends and I got this burn and it hurt so much and my friends were like," Ya... You don't have to make this.

My childhood all over again. I had an urge yesterday to find the old videos I use to watch when I was like 10.

I made it today but with ice cream filling and it was awesome. Thanks Ann ❤️

Like if you agree :)
A fun recipe for a young family for this time of the year, really great!!
God heard my cryings and showed me your channel
i love these elegant desserts you have recently made!
Now at around 3:15 you said dont touch it or it will stick to you and leave a bad burn, that happened to me at one of my sleepovers. We were gonna melt chocolate since I had strawberries at my house, but we didnt have any so we just used tootsie rolls. I got burned and it atuck. When I washed it off I got a REALLY bad burn and now I still have the scar
Ouch, I'm sorry to hear that! Sugary sauces are super hot so I often try to mention it just so that people don't have to go through the pain that you did :/

i love how it melted at the end it was amazing
I've always wanted to learn how to make chocolate covered coffee beans. If this interests you it might be neat to see chocolate covered coffee beans incorporated into a dessert!
If her shows was an ad i would not skip it. this was in a YT recommended and that how i knew this
I love your accent it's really cool! Also I love your videos they are so awesome they inspire me to do more things like this 😜 thanks for making amazing videos!
thanks Allison Six i appreciate that :)
Omg thanks for replying! What would you suggest other than nuts?
Allison Six I'm no expert, but I suggest chocolate chips or maybe a small fruit. That help??
Thanks! That does help!
Allison Six Yay! I was helpful! :D
Omg, perfection! This blew me off my seat. I cant wait for the holidays
haha, thanks Ana Moreno
Awesome recipe! Thank you =)
My mouth, literally, WATERED.
This looks really nice!
Any ideas how I could make a peanut-free version?
Just don't make the brittle, it will be extremely good still
Kane Sugar That would just be a huge ball of chocolate.
Scias no not really. But if you want you could put a scoop of ice cream inside the ball. That's what most chocolate bombs have inside.
Kane Sugar aah good idéa, thanks.
Scias np(: you could always put strawberries or fruit instead too.
It's amazing seeing how much excess chocolate there ACTUALLY is, even tho it looks like there is none. Many people just leave it like that and it wastes so much chocolate...great tip ann!
Sitting at home with only 20 pesos in my purse until the next payday (tomorrow) and I'm freaking dying watching this
Purse...?
***** Girl in real life.
Barb the Bab Faced ok.
^ well not only philipino people use pesos.
Brianne Barredo True. I'm FIlipina though lol
definitely deserves the million views!!
Would it be ok if I left the sugar to brown for a bit longer? I'm not a huge fan of very pale brittle... 😋
Worth the wait Ann......so yummy
Please do a Harry Potter cake!!!! Please please please.
Yes please a harry potter caka please , please
I just commented the same thing yesterday :') 'the monster book of monsters' will be perfect *-*
YES!! Harry potter cake. Awesome. Please do one!
Everytime i watch any of her videos i drool right away
It's funny how I keep watching these and never do any of the recipes.
i love this channel! i searched how to make truffles and ended up making a giant twix and a bouquet of chocolate & strawberry roses!XD
You: Now don't touch this cause it's hotter than boiling water.
Me: Ah great now I wanna touch it! Maybe if I..... *touches from screen.
Ow! Aw shoot how does that always happen to me!??!!

Same!!!
Me too!! :D
This is amazing! I will definitely try making this soon. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
share it? that little thing? what?
you can make many little ones maybe lol

Heavy whipping cream
+Dave Shalo thanks
Can you make something salted caramel??
Becky Hudobenko there's salted caramel macarons on my channel :)
I could eat this allllllll day it looks like the most yummiest desert ever!!!!!!!! 🍫🤗😌
Is there any way I could make this without the hemisphere mold??
no i dont think so Avery Milner
You could use a regular bowl but it won't be as rounded...
if you own a small silicone bowl you can! (
Just take a round bowl and line it with plastic foil
USE A BALLOON!!! It may sound silly but it works.
Blow up balloon.
Dunk in chocolate Up to Half way leaving the top bit of the balloon exposed.
Let it cool and harden in a fridge.
Pierce hole in ballon and let it shrivel down until it's easy to remove.
Repeat to create the bass
Place chocolate bowl on something hot..
...and place on other chocolate bowl so it can create a ball.
Simples 👌🏻👌🏼👌🏽👌🏾👌🏿
Thank you so much , I was looking for other ways to mold the chocolate sphere because Byron used one and I dont have any of that! Haha cheers

This is deadly, do you think using nutella instead of peanut butter would work? I have friends with peanut allergies
By deadly, i mean ridiculously delicious looking and tempting ( i dunno if thats a colloquial term)
thanks Gouravager yes you could do it with nutella. Deadly is not a common term here although I believe indigenous Australians use it for something that is very good.
I don't have the stuff to make it but I love watching the videos to make me nice a warm and hungry

Instead of peanuts, can we use macadamia nuts?0
+RickoMiko514 Using any different type of filling would be fine, just improvise if you need too
You could even use honeycomb or just crushed peanut brittle minus the peanuts so it's just caramel!😀
+Harry Goodman yes
+RickoMiko514 brobably
I made this for my family and they loved it especially my mum
well done david edwards :)
So cool when it melts

even though i think i wouldn't be able to eat this, still look amazin!!

That looks so good.
