    What exactly is a "ferrer rochas"?

    Assuming it's a cunning play on the words "Ferrero Rocher", the recipe should also contain a whole hazelnut at the centre, chopped hazelnuts and chocolate coating. I'm also not sure the rye is needed

    Has anyone else tried making a recipe? When I could eat them I always saw them as being a laughably tacky attempt at posh chocolates, but they are quite tasty.

    I didn't like Ferrero Rocher much - they seemed a bit sawdusty (perhaps one could use sawdust instead of Ryvitas? ).

    However, I'm currently enjoying a box of vegan pralines from the Dr Hadwen Trust (just testing them before Christmas, you understand). They aren't listed on their website (which doesn't seem very up to date in general) but you can e-mail them and ask them to send you a catalogue ( info@drhadwentrust.org.uk )

    I once (in my non vegan days - aged about 10) found and ate a ferrero rocher which had been laying on a roadside (a very quiet road you understand) overnight. We were on holiday and my parents had had an argument the night before. Instead of appologising, my dad offered my mother a ferrero rocher. She took it from him and in an act of defiance lobbed it off the balcony

    no, it was perfectly formed, still in wrapper, no signs of rodent nibbling. They are obviously designed with being thrown from a third floor balcony in mind.

    Oh ok. Thanks. I wonder if there is a gluten free Ryvita-type cracker that you could use instead. Planet Organic might have something.

    normal ferrero rocher doesn't contain rye

    It contains wafer, assumeably made using wheat flour. If you can make wafer using gluten free flour, which I'm guessing is a lot easier than cake/bread, you're onto a winner

    Potentially.

    From what I remember (at it's probably about 10 years ago now - eek!), the wafer forms a ball around the centre (chocolate foundant with a hazelnut in very the centre, approx 2cm in diameter), which in turn is coated in chocolate and crushed hazelnut. I'm not sure how making them without the wafer in a ball would affect the satisfying crunch when you bite into one. Of course, getting the wafer to ball shape most likely involves a machine and certainly making the wafer from scratch as opposed to using flat ready made ones. If memory serves, the wafer ball is made in 2 halves, so I guess they have an iron which makes each half, then it's glued together somehow after the centre is inserted (the obvious way being creating the inner balls and they freezing them to hold their shape during construction). Perhaps it would be easier to create a cube shapped one instead?

    As for the taste of the wafer itself, it's the thin, crispy, sweet type that's used to adorn icecreams - as opposed to something you'd butter and put cheese/toppings on which in the UK we call a cracker.

    I always picked the outside chocolate off first, then pulled the two halves of wafer apart, ate the whole hazelnut then the chocolatey-spread - I remember what MrFlibble describes as chocolate fondant being very like chocolate hazelnut spread such as nutella, though possibly not so thick.

    snap! Reverse engineering things can be tasty! When I was revising in the library at university I used to get bourbon biscuits from the campus shop as they were one of the only vegan things they sold. There was a bin by ever desk and I used to use my teeth to take the top layer of biscuit off, chuck it in the bin, lick the foundant out the centre, then throw away the bottom biscuit layer

    From what I remember it was just regular cheap tesco value chocolate hazlenut spread. Not runny but not hard. This is why I always used to think they were rather low budget/tacky and overpriced for what they are. There was no praline or anything fancy about or in the foundant.
