Dominique and Cindy Duby of Vancouver’s DC Duby Wild Sweets
created this encapsulation experience, which offers a mouthful of
rolling flavours—first salty, then sweet and finally bitter. All the
ingredients, except cream and oranges, are included in the
DC Duby SKV05 chocolate experiment kit, available online at www.dcduby.com
for $125. It also includes an instructional DVD and three other experiments.
