Spread out in a 0.5 cm-high frame, and once crystallised, cut into 0.8 by 0.8 cm cubes, approximately. Paint the walls of the drum with pre-crystallised 811NV dark chocolate couverture, so the chocolate cubes do not slide during panning. Turn on drying air to 40°C inside the pan. Add the Brazil dark chocolate cubes into the pan, and leave to pan for a few minutes until the corners have been rounded slightly. Once rounded, cool the pan once again with cold air at 8°C.
