Ingredients
- candy coating
- squeeze bottle
- 3D candy mold
- parchment paper
Instructions
Melt candy coating. Pour melted coating into a squeeze bottle. Cut the end of the tip slightly for ease in filling molds. Squeeze candy coating into mold. Place mold in freezer until the candy feels cold and the mold is cloudy. The candy should fall out. If it does not, leave it in the freezer a little longer. Fill the mold again. Carefully place the piece molded previously on top of the just-filled mold. Place in freezer until set. To get the 3-D candy shape to stand straight, place a baking sheet on a burner, low temperature. Put parchment paper on the baking sheet and stand the candy on the warm parchment paper until the base of the candy is melted to be perfectly flat.
