Maple Buttercream Candy

May 16, 2019 by layercakeparade

Maple and walnut come together for a seemingly unseasonable dessert. A bite of a Maple Buttercream Candy will convince you of this maple, walnut, and chocolate trio!

It’s a palindrome effect.

Maple is seen as an autumnal flavor
Yet it is during spring, as the northeast defrosts, that maple seeps out of the dormant maple trees
Large plastic drums, sitting squat against the veined tree roots, collect the diluted out pour. Forty gallons of this maple sap will be boiled and concentrated to create the amber elixir we all correlate to the chilly fall weather.

Maple Buttercream Candy

The maple buttercream candy is a step in the right direction.
A levity of light maple encounters toasted walnuts within a creamy, not sweet, buttercream. Milk and dark chocolate coat the outside with a classic chocolate candy bite.

Baking Talk

The freezer is your friend. Freezing allows you to get the best shape. If you overwork the buttercream, the filling will start to melt. Chilling in intervals prevents melting.

Making a circle with your pointer finger and thumb shapes the buttercreams into a decently even circle.

To assemble the Maple Buttercream Candy

    Once completely chilled, melt finely chopped chocolate in microwave in 20-second intervals (timing for melting depends on voltage of your microwave).
    Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with baking spray. Place a baking spray greased wire rack on top of foil.
    Use a fork to dip and shake the chocolate off of the buttercream. Place coated buttercreams on top if wire rack. Put remaining melted chocolate into a pastry bag and drizzle lines over buttercreams.
