Steps:
- To make the candied beets: Divide simple syrup evenly between three medium saucepans. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Add each variety of beets to a different saucepan and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and simmer until beets are translucent, about 1 hour. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- Line a baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat or parchment paper. Place sugar in a shallow dish. Gently drain beets, taking care not to break them, and dredge in sugar. Transfer to baking sheet and place in a cold oven to dry overnight. Beets may be kept in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- To make the cake: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Trim the tops from beets, leaving about 1 inch of the stems. Line a large piece of aluminum foil with a piece of parchment paper; make a bed of coarse salt in the center. Place beet on salt and tightly wrap foil to enclose. Transfer to oven and roast until beets are very tender, about 1 hour.
- When beets are cool enough to handle, peel and cut into large pieces. Transfer to the bowl of a food processor; process until very smooth. Strain and measure out 1/2 cup for the cake; reserve remaining beet puree for the sauce.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-9-inch square baking pan; coat with sugar, tapping out excess, and set aside.
- Sift together flour, baking soda, and 1/8 teaspoon salt onto a piece of parchment paper; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat together sugar, egg, and oil on medium-high speed until pale and light. Beat in vanilla and slowly add flour mixture; beat until well combined. Add chocolate and beat until well combined. Add 1/2 cup beet puree and beat until well combined.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and rap on the work surface to remove air bubbles. Transfer to oven and bake, rotating pan after 10 minutes of baking, until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes total. Let cool completely before removing from pan.
- To make the raspberry-beet sauce: Place the raspberries in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Strain, discarding solids, and measure out 1 cup of puree.
- Place 1 cup raspberry puree in a medium saucepan along with 1/4 cup reserved beet puree and vanilla bean and seeds. Place saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil.
- In a small bowl, mix together sugar and apple pectin; add to saucepan and return to a boil. Strain sauce into a medium bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Transfer to refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
- To serve: Using a 3 1/2-inch heart-shaped cutter, cut out six heart shapes from the cake. Using a 1 1/2-inch heat-shaped cutter, cut out the center of each 3 1/2-inch heart. Dust large hearts with confectioners' sugar; place one on each of six plates. Fill the center of each heart with raspberry-beet sauce and drizzle some of the sauce on the plate. Lean the smaller heart against the larger heart.
- Using a soup spoon, scoop up a mounded spoonful of vanilla whipped cream; slide second soup spoon on top of first, with spoons pointing in opposite directions. Spoon whipped cream back and forth a few times, scraping it into a small, neat egg shape. Place on one of the plates. Repeat process five times until each plate has a scoop of whipped cream. Crush a rose petal over each plate and serve immediately.

CHOCOLATE ROSE - HOW TO MAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:
- How To Make Chocolate Clay Dough: In a shallow bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave for 2 minutes; stir. Be careful so that the temperature does not exceed 100 degrees F. If chocolate is not completely melted, return to microwave for 30 seconds at a time and stir until smooth. Learn different techniques for How To Melt Chocolate. Add corn syrup to the melted chocolate and mix well (scrape all the corn syrup into the chocolate with a rubber spatula). Using a rubber spatula, stir and fold mixture, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl well, until no shiny syrup is visible and the mixture forms a thick ball. Pour mixture onto a waxed paper sheet and spread with the spatula until it's about 1/2-inch thick; let it sit and stiffen, uncovered, for approximately 2 hours. Use at once or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month. How To Make Chocolate Roses: Knead a handful of dough at a time on a work surface until it is soft and pliable (like Play-Dough). Roll dough into twelve (12) 1/2-inch diameter chocolate balls. For one full-sized rose, you will need 12 balls, and for rosebuds, you will need 4 to 5 balls. The size of the ball will determine the size of the rose. For small roses use small chocolate balls, for large roses use large chocolate balls. Place the balls on waxed paper or plastic wrap about 1-inch apart. Using your fingers, press on the center and then on either side of each chocolate ball, flattening the disk into 1-inch round flat disks about the size of a quarter (leave the top edge thinner than and bottom edge). Repeat with the remaining chocolate balls. Remove one prepared disk and curl it into a "teepee" shape, narrow at the top and wider at the bottom, (this will be the center of the rose). Wrap the next disk around the opening of the teepee and the third disk at the back of the teepee - this is the rose bud. Continue adding disks which will look like petals, placing them in between slightly lower than previous row. For a fuller flower, continue adding petals in this manner. As you form petals, you gently roll or curl the right edge of the petal downward. Pinch off any excess chocolate clay at the base of the rose to make more balls. Roses will harden after a few days and can be saved by storing in a cool, dry place.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before starting, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment ready.
- Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly affect the final product, so choose a good-quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of.
- Tempering the chocolate: Tempering the chocolate is an important step that helps to stabilize the chocolate and give it a smooth, glossy finish. If you don't temper the chocolate, it may become grainy or seize up.
- Use a double boiler or bain-marie: This is the best way to melt chocolate without burning it. Simply place a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and stir the chocolate until it is melted.
- Be patient: Making chocolate roses takes time and patience. Don't rush the process, or you may end up with misshapen or broken roses.
Conclusion:
Chocolate roses are a beautiful and delicious treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a little time and patience, you can easily make your own chocolate roses at home. Just follow the tips above and you'll be sure to end up with stunning results.
