    This is Pam--I plan on making a huge number of chocolate spheres for a 3 tiered cake using your candy melts. My question is once the spheres are made and removed from moulds do I need to refrigerate them or can they be stored at room temperature?? I need to make weeks in advance due to the amount of work I have to get done. Many thanks!

    Great video with lots of detailed information. I'm new to using candy melts for decorating so this helps.I have several questions for you. I'm going to make Halloween themed cake pops so I was thinking of melting white candy melts then adding color to it to make a red color and another one for Yellow. In the video you mentioned it's better to use fat based extracts versus water based extracts so that it doesn't hardened up. Is food coloring the same thing as extracts that you are referring to in the video? If so, unfortunately mine is the water base and I don't have the time to get the Candy melts EZ thin so after adding the food coloring to the melted white candy melts then should I add just a little vegetable shortening to it so it doesn't harden? If so, how much should I add? What brand do you recommend for the fat based extracts to add color to the candy melts? Another question is how long do you wait for the melted candy melts to cool before adding it to the piping bag so the bag isn't too hot to handle and the consistency is still good for piping? Thanks ting.

  • @judysbakeryandtestkitchen1654

    I just started making chocolates using molds. I bought the warmer after you showed how easy it makes cleanup! Then I bought the two sided insert. Yaay!
    I have an old Wilton chocolate rose mold. The roses have green leaves on them. How do I do that? I made an all pink rose, with pink leaves because I filled out the whole mold.
    The roses would look so much better with green leaves. I don’t know how to make a two color rose.

I've tried using gel type and liquid type, they harden and curdle the candy melts and its no longer usable... :( please help! Thank you!!!! 😊😊😊
