    tinyB's Wine & Chocolate Pairing

    Watch instructional videos, access ingredient information and more.

    Wine and chocolate are amazing on their own. Together they create delicious new experiences.

    We’re excited to partner with The Day Project, a local winery which creates some of the best wines we’ve tasted. Their wines pair well with a wide variety of flavors: from intense dark chocolate to tart fruit.

    We hope you’ll have a fun, relaxing chocolate experience that you can share with friends, colleagues, and loved ones alike.

    Instructions and Ideas

    Preparation

    1. Chill your wine and chocolate
    2. Open wine and serve
    3. Pour each topping on a separate plate
    4. Separate paper cups
    5. Open the jars (except the Brigadeiro Spread) and reserve a spoon for each
    6. Have a paper towel or wipe available
    7. Prepare a small bowl of water or a bit of butter for your hands
    8. Set up the contents of your kit on a table.

    Let's Do It!

    Wet or lightly butter your hands. Choose a jar to start with, scoop out some chocolate and roll it in your hand until round. Roll quickly or it will start to melt. Choose a topping and roll your brigadeiro on the plate until evenly covered. Place it in a cup for presentation. To pair, take a generous bite of a brigadeiro, then a small sip of wine. Notice how the flavors blend together. Repeat often!

    Pro Tips

    • Chill your wine and refrigerate your chocolate before starting.
    • A standard brigadeiro is 1 1/4″ wide, but start with a smaller size as a sampler
    • Cleanse your palate between tastings. Try water or soda water.
    • Heat the Brigadeiro Spread in the microwave for 10 seconds. Serve on top of fruit or ice cream

    Activities

    Explore Taste

    Taste and Texture Choose a style from the options below. Make three different brigadeiros with that in mind.

    Sweet, salty, spicy, sweet & sour, subtle, fruity, smooth, crunchy.

    The Unexpected Chocolate pairs with some surprising flavors. Find one of the following in your pantry and try it with dark or milk chocolate:

    Salt, olive oil, spices, crushed breakfast cereal or granola, etc.

    Create the most surprising, yet delicious, pairing you can.

    Pairing

    Microwave your jar of spread for 10 seconds and pair it with fruit, ice cream, or your favorite dessert. If pairing with wine, try dark chocolate and a full-bodied varietal like Cabernet Sauvignon or Pinot Noir.

    The Chef & The Taster

    The chef creates a brigadeiro, and the taster does a blind tasting. Pair up and take turns. The taster earns 1 point for identifying the center and 1 point for the topping. The winner gets to be called “chocolatier” for the rest of the day.

    Brigadeiro Story*

    Compete to see who can create the best Instagram-worthy photo shoot. Style your brigadeiros with props and backdrops. Tell a story about the scene.
