The badger brush

Recently we discovered the joy of using a badger brush to polish up the chocolate before packaging it. As far as I can tell, this great little brush is made of actual badger hair! Actually, badger brushes aren't that uncommon. They're part of those old-fashioned shaving kits with the cup and the strop and the straight edge razor. Ours looks more like a paint brush, and it works miraculously well. Shiny chocolate! Hurray!
