🍫🔥🐔 Tonight’s kitchen adventure: chicken mole (aka mole de pollo), tender chicken simmered in a rich, spicy chocolate sauce, served over homemade Spanish rice.

Well, here he is. My white chocolate copy of @bodgit_bendit's replica of the Cirencester cockerel - found 2011 by @CotswoldArch in Cirencester in a Roman child's grave, it dates to the 2nd Century AD.

Original can be seen in @CoriniumMuseum

Well, he's painted. Now to let him dry before the big reveal....

That's better! 😊

If all else fails (...and I haven't entirely given up on the idea of the full brassy chicken with base) I now have everything I need for the 'as found' version......

Now it can sit in the fridge overnight and get trimmed tomorrow...

Phew.

Have moulds... Now they need to go off.....then its casting time... Gulp!!

#chocolatechicken

Ready to apply green gunk....

This is probably the most insane thing I've ever attempted in chocolate......

If I can make this, anything is possible 😂

Keep everything crossed! 🤞
