This post is not about chocolate cupcakes (ok, I admit, these cupcakes came from a bakery), it's about how to create spooky chocolate hands. It's Easy! No special equipment or experience required. It's my first time working with candy melts (chocolate), and I found it's pretty easy. Give it a try! You will feel the same way.
- Microwave the candy at half power for 1 minutes
- Stir until smooth.
By the time you are done stirring, the candy is not hot anymore!
- Draw on wax paper
- Remove the hands from the wax paper carefully when they are all set. (less than half an hour).
Don't worry, they are not that easy to break! I made more than 20 hands, and I didn't break anything. Not even a single finger.
- Use them to decorate cupcakes or chocolate brownies.
