This was as if old nick ’s food for thought bar were n’t already temptation embodied , we ’ve crank up the estrus with a robust and melty ganache lead and a four - alarum - fervor cap .
All you ask to bull the flame is shekels , body of water , a confect thermometer , and nutrient emblazon .
get the confect nerveless , and dip the temper spell in for a sweet that ’ll go down in a hell of gloriole .
