Peppermint Toads

I made this creme by accident one day, and it was delicious. Put it in the form of a toad and you've got another sweet straight from Honeyduke's!

Peppermint + White Chocolate + Marshmallow = AWESOME

Step 1: Materials

To make this delicious creme candy, you will need the following:

1 1/2 cups White chocolate
1/2 cup Marshmallow Creme
1 tblsp Honey
2 tblsp Shortening
Peppermint Flavour
Red Food Colouring
A Frog/Toad-Shaped Candy Mold
Microwave-Safe Bowls
Spoons
A Ziplock Bag

Can you please post a couple pictures of the wand featured in the picture and btw me and my best friend had a blast making these at a harry potter movie party...

[FleurDelacour711]

Oh goodness that wand in the foreground is utterly lovely. <3

[wjohnson5]

Exactly what i was thinking it is a very beautiful wand

[Lasyaan]

Can you please post a how-to for making the box? I know where to buy chocolate frogs and if i put it in there and took it to school it would be so awesome!

[D00M99]

Is the mold plastic? How do you pop out the frogs?

[labellelunaclaire]

I've got the same mold. Yes, it is plastic. You should spray some food-release or non-stick spray into the molds before using them, and they'll just pop right out with a little wiggling and tapping. It's not difficult at all.

What they have peppermint toads! But i got the special edition Dumbledore frog.

What about your wand?

[yota]

My wand was born of a bit of boredom, during which time I took a Dremel to a dowel, then painted it a dark brown, then painted a brushing of antique gold colour, and wiped it away, lightly, after a few moments of drying.

It's really nice, I actually just bought a dremel and i have some dowels... :D I may just try this out. and use some fancy stain. :)

Thanks so much!

Where in the WORLD did you make that box? I'm planning on making some movie-accurate Chocolate Frogs. I know how to make the Witches and Wizard cards. I also know how to make the frogs themselves. But the BOX is driving me crazy. What are your secrets????????

[yota]

There's a ink to the box artwork in the final step; you can print it out and make one yourself.

If you just want a chocolate frog box, someone over at deviantart.com recreated it and the folding pattern by hand, so if you just search for "chocolate frog box" or something like that, you should be all good!

[bigbearswife]

oh my gosh how cute!!

Looks like a good mold to me.

Your publications on Harry Potter themes candies are so much fun! I'm going to have to try them out on a couple of my friends.
