i want to make a croquembouche for a friend's birthdayI was thinking of using a normal bowl as the mold since i don't have a cone shaped one, but was wondering if i would be able to get it out of the bowl since it doesn't go into a point at the top? Also, i guess it wouldn't be good to use a plastic bowl?If it's not possible, then does anyone know where i can buy a cone mold on a low budget in london?Also does anyone have any advice on ensuring the croquembouche leaves the mold cleanly without breakage?I'd really like to practice it this week as i need to make it for real next week, so any urgent help is much appreciated!
As a chef we use a styrofoam cone wrapped in aluminium foil, you could use the bowls just cover them apply a light coating of veg oil so the caramel does not stick, build around to the top for support you could make a cone with AF to form the topin London England or Ontario the craft store sell them but unless your making one every day like we did then the foil is fine, just remember to oil it as yu do ot want the bouchees to have silver side.
You can't cover a box or splice so you cannot access or see itAnd can't cover non ic light fixturesInsulation over the boxes like you said is typical and safe.
