"Hi nondomesticgoddess, Dulce de Leche is a soft spreadable bought toffee in a jar... you can get the same effect by boiling a (sealed) tin can of condensed milk for 2.5hrs (you MUST keep the can covered with water when boiling otherwise you'll explode the can - messy and very dangerous), remove the can from the water and leave to cool completely before opening. I use this in all sorts of things... banoffee pie, heated with double cream to make a creamy toffee sauce for ice cream, etc. hope this helps! "

"Tinkerbelle, sorry forgot to say - I have tried this recipe in both ceramic and foil ramekins and they both work fine and come out first time, the trick is the butter and cocoa powder lining; it has to be thick. As for getting the foil ramekins, I got mine in a local cookware shop. And depending where you live, you should be able to get them from a shop called Steamer Trading: http://www.steamer.co.uk/index.php?pageid=home_page "

"This is the best recipe I have found for fondants and works perfectly! I love the fact you don't have to cook them immediately, especially if you're only making them for fewer people because you can save the rest in the freezer for a rainy day. This recipe also works well using gluten free flour. And I used 6 whole eggs instead of the 4 eggs and 4 egg yolks as the recipe says - I'm not one for wastage."
