  • Let the molds sit 5 minutes and re-spread any candy melts that sank to the bottom of the molds.
  • Add a second layer of melted chocolate to the half circles molds, especially on the edges.
  • Refrigerate molds for 30-45 minutes.
  • Once set, carefully remove candy melt spheres from mold.

  • Carefully and quickly add an empty chocolate circle on top to make a sphere and hold it in place for 15 seconds or until the chocolate has acted like glue and hardened.
  • Place onto a plate and drizzle melted chocolate on top with the piping bag and quickly top with rainbow sprinkles.

Notes

Alternate method for connecting spheres:
  1. Place a glass plate in the microwave for one minute.
  2. Remove the plate and immediately place each empty sphere on the hot plate to heat the chocolate edges.
  3. Place each heated sphere on each filled sphere. You can use the tip of your finger to smooth the melted candy around the seam.
