Bit into a chocolate truffle from a local candy shop that was a kind of hemispherical shape, perhaps made from a flat chocolate base that had a blob of filling put on it and then encapsulated in more chocolate.
And as I'm looking at the seam between the two segments the first thing that comes to mind is... Wouldn't it be cool to freeze one of these in LN2, cross section, polish, maybe ion mill, then do like SEM/EBSD to look at the cocoa butter grain structure around the weld line?
I think I have a problem.
