Let's Do The Twist

Tired of the of the normal "bon bon" style drizzle design?  Try something different with the side-drizzle! 

Check out my little demo:



Tips:
- Spin the pop at a slow speed as it moves through the stream of chocolate.  Spinning it too fast will cause you to decorate your kitchen in melted chocolate.
- Spinning the pop too slowly will create short wavy lines (see the 2nd pop I did).
- The finer you want your drizzle, the smaller the corner you need to snip off of the plastic bag. 

I hope you like my first video... let me know what you think!

  1. Awesome! What kind of melts are those in the background? I'm looking to move away from Wilton because I'm not getting the smoothness I'd like. Keep doing videos, they're so fun to watch!

    1. Try Americolor food markers - DON'T use Wilton, they don't write on chocolate well! Americolor markers can be purchased from amazon.

  6. Do you add any kind of oil to achieve that consistency?

    1. For this batch, I did not add oil.

      For some reason, red melts seem to be thicker and sometimes in that case I'll add some oil.
