anyone else make candy? i got some food grade silicone and made my first molds.

just looking for advice as this is the first time i've ever tried. i also got the ingredients for gummi/gellie candies. luckily there's a store that caters to the industry close to my house. it's a rather large industry in vegas.

For your next SweeTiki you should make a carmel filled moai nose.

Lookin' good Perry! Are they dark chocolate so we can tell ourselves that they are good for us? :D At least you can eat your mistakes, can't do that with sterling silver!

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes, art is knowing which ones to EAT :lol:

heh, i had bad heartburn late at night after making those. my tummy's not what it used to be.

they're not as dark as i'd like, but i had to start with some easy chocolate. it's only 58% cocoa. :)

when i get the tempering technique and molding down i'll switch to 80 or so.

i hope people understand that these are chocolates and not fine jewelry. the casts are a little rougher and don't go through a finishing process. i think the buffing wheel might not be good for them.

Trader Jim's better half makes super tiki chocolates!


Moai happy returns

And my last cocktail at Trailer Happiness came with a chocolate moai to compliment the 15YO Pussers old fashioned made with cigar-infused maple syrup.

Zombies, Coconut and rum flavored candy in a nice metal tin, supposedly from the 40's or 50's according to the Google searches I did on it.
