Every time I've been in Hobbycraft I always looked in their direction of their baking section and saw some products that I wanted to buy but never did. Except yesterday, I did.
Chocolate moulds!

The basic idea being you melt the chocolate, pour it into the mould, hit it on the sideboard a few times to get ride of any air bubbles in the chocolates and then put into the fridge to set for about an hour or so. But I wanted to try marbelling some chocolate to get that true "Belgian" effect. You have to be careful not to overstir the chocolates together otherwise you lose the marbelling.

| Finished! Not exactly marbel, but still really tasty! |
The finished effect wasn't all that marbelled, but they still taste good! I think next time I'll have to try using a piping bag so that the chocolate don't get mixed together as I've trying to coax it out of the bow into the mould. Didn't take very long at all to make though!
