Answers:
Ganache

The basis for most of the actual chocolates made in the movie, seem to be based on ganache. This is a very simple, basic preparation that made be used in many different ways, and flavoured to taste with liqueurs or essences etc. Items like nuts, coconut etc may also be added.

200 gm coverture / dark semi bitter chocolate
125 ml cream

1 Boil cream in a thick based pan and remove from the heat
2 Stir in the melted chocolate (add any essences etc at this stage) and stir until blended and thickened
3 Place in chiller to cool and set before use

For simple truffles, roll by hand into balls and roll in cocoa powder
For truffles with almonds etc, press some ganache around the nut and roll by hand into balls, then roll in the cocoa powder
The ganache may also be pressed into moulds or shaped delicately by hand and then dipped into melted chocolate

Chocolate Gravy seen at the end of the movie!
Ingredients :
