Add a small amount of buttercream icing to the crumbled pistachio cake to create a dough. Add enough icing that the dough holds your finger indentions without being too sticky. Very little icing is needed if your cake is moist.

Place the super white chocolate candy wafers and the paramount crystals into a microwave-safe bowl. Melt the chocolate using 20 second intervals, stirring in between to ensure the chocolate melts evenly and doesn’t scorch. Continue melting until the chocolate is fluid. Add mint green candy color. Separate the mold into the three parts (bottom mold, inserts and top mold). In the bottom mold, spoon melted chocolate to the fill line. Place in inserts and gently press. Place top part of mold on inserts and gently press, ensuring the chocolate is lining the sides.
