This chocolate sorbet recipe is largely inspired by the one in the book “The House of Chocolate” by Robert Linxe, published by “Chène”. I just substituted 25 grams of caster sugar with 30 grams of glucose syrup. You can replace glucose syrup with honey.

5. Then put the chocolate mix to cool, stirring occasionally. Here I used an ice “bath” – just like a bain-marie but with ice cubes instead of warm water.
6. Put the device in the tray of your ice cream maker.
