LIFESAVERS CANDY PACIFIERS (BABY SHOWER) RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:
- Picture Tutorial Directions: Step 1: 2 dots of melted white chocolate on the smooth side of a Lifesaver, directly across from each other. (I use a toothpick.) Step 2: With the Lifesaver laying on counter (smooth side up), place another Lifesaver vertically (smooth side facing you) over the 2 dots of melted chocolate and hold in place for a few seconds, then set aside to harden completely in that position. Continue repeating this step until desired number of pacifiers is reached. (The "nipples" will be added in next step). Step 3: Starting with the first ones you made in Step 2, pick up and turn a half-made pacifier over (to the side with the hole showing) and line the edge of center hole with melted chocolate. (I used a toothpick.) Immediately go to Step 4 after each one. Step 4: Place a jellybean vertically in the center hole of Lifesaver. (I turn both smooth sides of the Lifesavers toward me, then align the side of jellybean that has the little dip in the center toward the front). After each one is completed, immediately jump to step 5. Step 5: After each "pacifier" is finished in Step 4, place it upright between the wires of a 1 to 2" high wire cooling rack. Continue Steps 3 through 5 until all pacifiers are finished. Let set for at least an hour (or longer) before transferring to a serving display. This is really important! If moved before completely hardened, they will come apart.
BABY PACIFIERS (SHOWER FAVORS)
I saw this on an episode of "The Baby Story" a long time ago and dug it out when it was time for my sister's baby shower. Very cute placed on the guest tables at baby showers or on the food buffet table. Also good for playing the "Can't Say the Word" shower game (where every guest is given an item, sometimes it's a clothespin, and they are instructed at the beginning of the shower that they can't say a certain word. each time a guest says that word in conversation to another guest, the offending person must surrender their item/clothespin to the person that caught them. The person with the most items at the end of the shower wins.).

Tips:
- Choose high-quality candy melts: Good quality candy melts will melt smoothly and evenly, resulting in a beautiful and glossy finish.
- Prepare your molds: Before you start melting the candy melts, make sure your molds are clean and dry. You can use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean the molds.
- Melt the candy melts slowly and carefully: Candy melts can burn easily, so it's important to melt them slowly and carefully. You can do this in a microwave or on the stovetop. If you're using a microwave, heat the candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each interval. If you're using the stovetop, melt the candy melts over low heat, stirring constantly.
- Add flavoring or coloring: Once the candy melts are melted, you can add flavoring or coloring if desired. You can use extracts, oils, or food coloring to create different flavors and colors.
- Pour the candy melts into the molds: Once the candy melts are melted and flavored, pour them into the molds. Be sure to fill the molds completely, but not overfill them.
- Tap the molds: After you've poured the candy melts into the molds, tap the molds on a hard surface to remove any air bubbles.
- Refrigerate the molds: Place the molds in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until the candy melts have hardened.
- Unmold the candies: Once the candy melts have hardened, unmold the candies by gently pushing them out of the molds.
