More Tips
When buying your chocolate go for a good quality dark chocolate. You should choose something with at least 70% cocoa solids - this will break down into a dark, smooth liquid when melted. Also, when whipping cream don't take it out of the fridge too early - nice and cold and straight from the fridge will make it ten times easier to whip; as will a large-headed balloon whisk. With a small whisk and warm cream you might be there all day - so take note.
