Fredericks' career in chocolate started with his wife a little more than 20 years ago. She was anxious to make some fancy desserts and had her mind set on truffles. He made some for her using chocolate chips. Discovering that chocolate chips don't make the best truffles, he began experimenting using different types of chocolate. With degrees in both chemistry and geology he says, "My background in science really helps me to understand what chocolate does and how to get it to do what I want it to do. 

"Bill explains the science behind chocolate and how temperature and other factors contribute to chocolate's texture and appearance during melting and cooling. He also shows how to keep the working area sanitary so all the left over chocolate can be reused again. Printed recipes included.2 disc set.

Producer's Note: This 3.5 hour program that may seem epic but is chock full of useful skills, tips and techniques when working with chocolate!

REVIEW: The Midwest Book Review
Confectioners, dessert chefs, and chocolate lovers with a creative flair will absolutely love the latest "Dare to Cook: Chocolate" installments of the "Dare to Cook" DVD series, each available in DVD, Blu-Ray, or downloadable versions.

Both are hosted by "Chocolate Man" Bill Fredericks, who guides viewers step-by-step through dessert-making techniques. In "Dare to Cook Chocolate: Tempering" (9781604900651, $24.95) viewers learn how the tempering process that affects the final gloss, hardness, and contraction of chocolate; even slight variations in the temperature as melted chocolate cools can have a drastic effect upon the crystals formed within the cocoa butter and therefore the entire makeup of the finished product.

Four different tempering methods (Slab, Seed, Stick Blender Mycryo) are covered in depth, as well as guides to creating wondrously delicious desserts such as Dipped Apricots and Strawberries or Molded Chocolate.

In "Dare to Cook Chocolate: Holiday Confections" (9781604900668, $34.95, 3.5 hours, 2 DVDs), viewers can learn to cook a veritable smorgasbord of handmade chocolate treats perfect for Christmas or Easter celebrations, from Chocolate Pizzas to French Truffles, Hazelnut Bars, Peanut Butter Cups, Spring Molds of Bunnies and Eggs, and much more.

Both programs are thoroughly accessible to amateur and experienced cooks alike, and highly recommended for anyone interested in trying their hand at making confections with love.

Excellent Purchase!
Color: Brown, Pattern Name: Tree stump 2 Pack, Color: Brown, Pattern Name: Tree stump 2 Pack
My dogs and I really like these treat toys! I was surprised and questioning whether to keep them when I took them from the box. They are heavier and harder and larger than I envisioned. I didn't realize how hard a nylon/coffee wood combo actually is. However, I want to emphasize that the sales description IS accurate. It details the specifications, materials and size. Clearly states that they are designed specifically for aggressive chewers. I just haven't purchased anything quite like this before. That said, I was happy it came in a 2 pack and it seems a good value for the price. The dogs have chewed on them, I can see the marks, but they haven't made a dent after about 6 treat sessions. These logs are at least as hard as antlers. They will last a long time. The silicone trays are easy to fill and freeze. I made low calorie popsicles with bone broth and some added mix-ins like pureed pumpkin, healthy freeze dried dog food topper sprinkle, etc. You could also add some peanut butter in the small open end of the log if you want. I just ran hot water over the bottom of the silicone tray to melt the freeze slightly and the frozen treats slid right out. They are shaped perfectly to fit the hole in the log. The seller provided small tools to unscrew/screw the cap in and out for filling with treats. Even the smaller of my 2 dogs (30 lb Brittany) can get her mouth around the end of the log to carry it to her bed to lay and lick/chew it. I guess another advantage, beyond the durability, of the material is that my dogs don't want to play with it like a toy. They know it is time to relax and have a treat timeout. More like chilling with a chew bone. Overall we really do love these!! Glad I tried them.

Great Product!

My dogs love their dental chews! This product is durable and the perfect size for each of my dogs. I've purchased two of them (medium and large). One of my dogs is an aggressive chewer and this product is holding up. Hartz makes great pet products. I'm very happy with the product.

Winnie Loves Them!
Size: Medium (Pack of 3), Color: Orange, Green & Yellow, Pattern Name: Dog
My Winnie is an aggressive chewer and she loves these bones. They're indestructible and they must be delicious because she works on them every day. I was a bit concerned when they were out of stock for a few months. Please don't discontinue them!
