Decorating:
Polka dots - Use the flat end of a wooden skewer or a clean paint brush to dip into melted chocolate. Dot onto refrigerated molds, then refrigerate again. Drizzles - Use a fork to drizzle the chocolate over solid candy that you have already made and let set.
Tips:
* Candy molds can be found at discount department and craft supply stores in the craft section near the cake decorating supplies. They look much like a muffin tin, though much smaller and made from clear plastic..* You can use chocolate chips instead of candy melts and use food coloring to change or tint white chocolate.
