  • candy mold
  • candy coating
  • squeeze bottle (if desired)
FILLING THE MOLD WITH A SPOON
Melt candy coating. Spoon the melted coating into the candy mold, filling almost to the top. Tap mold on counter to remove air bubbles. Place mold in freezer until the candy feels cold and the mold is cloudy. The candy should fall out. If it does not, leave in the freezer a little longer. (If details stay in the mold, the candy was not cold enough.)
FILLING THE MOLD WITH A SQUEEZE BOTTLE
Melt candy coating. Pour the melted candy coating into a squeeze bottle. Cut the end of the tip slightly for ease in filling molds. Squeeze chocolate candy coating into mold, filling almost to the top. Tap mold on counter to remove air bubbles. Place mold in freezer until the candy feels cold and the mold is cloudy. The candy should fall out. If it does not, leave in the freezer a little longer. (If details stay in the mold, the candy was not cold enough.)
