Do-It-Yourself Guide

Hot Chocolate Favors:

By Jill Reber

What you need:
Hot Chocolate (any brand)
Creamer (optional)
Marshmallows
Sandwich Baggies
Rubber bands
Ribbon

First step, cut off the zip-lock of the baggies, then holding one corner of the baggie in your hand. Spoon in hot chocolate. I found it easier cutting one down one side of the baggie.

Second step, fill with creamer and marshmallows. 
Third step, rubber-band the the baggie above the marshmallows. Then tie the ribbon over that to hide it.

Spring Chocolate Roses:

What you need:
Chocolate or Candy Molds
Melt-able Chocolate
Boxes or baggies


I have nice melt-able chocolate for a chocolate fountain I owe, however that is costly. Most chocolate packages include how to melt the chocolate properly, including bags of chocolate chips. The two candy trays I have, I bought at a garage sale, but can be purchased in craft stores or stores that sell Wilton products.

Step one, melt the chosen chocolate. Fill in desired mold in tray.I had trouble getting the chocolate out after refrigerating, so next time I will probably spray the mold first, then fill.

Step two, refrigerate chocolate for 10-15 minutes.Once the chocolate is firm, pop the candies out of the mold. Try not to handle too much as they will melt. Place in boxes or baggies.


Extra touches: White chocolate can be colored with food coloring so you can mix colors and using a paintbrush color molds different colors. However that is time consuming and a bit more costly.
