EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the artisanal process of moulding chocolate bases for various desserts, such as Charlotte Russe, Cream Boats, and Bombs, in a professional kitchen setting from the 1930s. The image, taken at Lambeth, showcases the meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship involved in creating these intricate chocolate foundations. The moulding process begins with a lambeth, a flat, shallow, round or oval-shaped metal container with a smooth, polished interior. The chocolate, tempered to ensure a glossy finish and proper hardness, is carefully poured into the mould. Once the chocolate has reached the desired thickness, the mould is gently tapped to remove any air bubbles and ensure an even coating. Once the chocolate has cooled and solidified, the mould is carefully inverted, releasing the perfectly formed chocolate base. The moulding process is repeated until a large quantity of chocolate bases is produced. These bases serve as the foundation for various desserts, providing a rich, decadent touch and enhancing the visual appeal of the final product. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its depiction of a traditional pastry-making technique that has stood the test of time. Although modern methods and equipment have evolved, the art of moulding chocolate bases remains an essential skill in the world of dessert-making. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the dedication and expertise required to create exquisite, handcrafted chocolate bases for beloved desserts.
