How to Make Alice's Fondant Filling For Chocolates

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, glucose syrup, and water. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Cook over medium heat, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 240°F (115°C) on a candy thermometer. This is the soft-ball stage.
  3. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
  4. Slowly pour the hot sugar syrup into the whipped egg whites, whisking constantly at a medium-high speed. Be cautious as the mixture is very hot.
  5. Continue whisking until the mixture is thick, glossy, and completely cooled. This will take approximately 30-40 minutes.
  6. Once cooled, add the vanilla extract and butter, and mix until smooth and creamy.
  7. Divide the mixture and add your desired flavor variations (see below).
  8. Transfer the fondant into piping bags and fill your chocolate shells.
  9. Allow the chocolates to set completely before serving.
