Oil Soluble Grape Flavoring

To make this Grape Bonbon Filling, gently heat heavy cream until warm, then pour it over chopped white chocolate to melt it into a smooth ganache. Stir in grape extract, optional butter, and a pinch of salt to enhance flavor and texture. Chill the ganache until firm but still pipeable, then fill your prepared chocolate shells or molds. Once filled, the bonbons can be sealed with tempered chocolate for a professional candy shop finish. This filling is perfect for gifting, candy making, or enjoying as homemade treats.
