Supplies:
dark chocolate candy melts and white candy melts
silicone baking cups
paper hearts
custard (I used this recipe.)
strawberries, if you want.
How to:
1. Heat candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl or Ziploc baggy for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between, until completely melted.
2. Spoon 2-3 teaspoons of melted candy into the silicone baking cup and swirl to coat the interior of the cup. Let cool.
3. Gently peel the silicone cup away from the hardened candy and push the bottom of the cup to pop the candy cup out of the baking cup.
4. Drizzle melted candy onto paper hearts (or other shapes) or free-hand drizzle designs onto wax paper. Let cool; peel away paper.
5. Prepare custard (or desired filling). Fill candy cups. Decorate by using melted candy to “glue” hearts onto the candy cups. Hold in place with toothpicks until the decoration and cup are bonded.
6. If you want to dip a few strawberries, wash and dry them thoroughly first, then dip away!

Hi Kristie,
It’s Guittard Melt’n’Mold, and yes, it’s definitely more white than the Wilton melts!

Those look amazing. What kind of white chocolate do you use? Yours always looks pure white. My stuff always seems kind of yellow. Is there a trick to it?
