Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the candy will be. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.

  • Use a variety of molds: You can use any type of mold to make chocolate candy, but some shapes are easier to work with than others. Start with simple molds, such as squares or rounds, and then experiment with more complex shapes as you gain experience.
  • Be patient: Chocolate candy takes time to make. Don't rush the process or you'll end up with candy that is crumbly or grainy.
  • Have fun! Making chocolate candy is a great way to relax and be creative. Experiment with different flavors and decorations to create your own unique candies.
