STEP 1: Preparation
Begin by ensuring your silicone mould is clean and dry. This will help to remove the chocolates once they’re set.
STEP 2: Silver Coating
Lightly dust the inside of the silicone mould with the edible silver powder. Ensure a thin, even layer coats the entire interior of each cavity. This will give your chocolates a shimmering, antique look.
STEP 3: Melting the Chocolate
In a heatproof bowl, break the dark chocolate into small pieces. You can melt the chocolate using a microwave. Simply heat it in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval until it’s fully melted.
Alternatively, melt the chocolate using a double boiler method. To do this, place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water.
Stir continuously until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
STEP 4: Pouring
Once melted, carefully pour the chocolate into the silver-coated silicone mould. Tap the mould gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles and ensure the chocolate settles evenly.
Place the filled mould in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolates are fully set.
STEP 5: De-moulding the Chocolates
Once set, gently push the chocolates out of the mould from the bottom, ensuring they come out clean and retain their shape.
STEP 6: Serving Tips
- Serve these Poison Bottle Chocolates on a dark plate or tray to enhance their spooky appearance.
- Pair with other Halloween treats and beverages for a complete party spread.
- Store any leftovers in a cool, dry place to maintain their shape and flavor.
