Chocolate mold for Christmas balls - classic

Chocolate mold for Christmas balls - classic

This mold makes festive chocolate balls with a smooth, shiny surface. The classic Christmas bauble is ideal if you want to make elegant baubles and decorate them individually. What is it suitable for? For casting decorative Christmas baubles that you can paint and fill as you wish. How is it used? Wash out the mold with warm water, dry it well and polish it with a dry cloth - this will give the baubles their shine. Before pouring, you can paint details with contrasting couverture or cocoa butter paint or apply fine speckles of paint with a toothbrush. Pour tempered couverture into the polished mold and pour off the excess to form a thin layer. Place the filled mold in the refrigerator; as it cools, the chocolate will contract and separate from the mold. Place the mold open side down on a cotton cloth and remove the hemispheres. With the classic Christmas ball, join two halves together at the edge with a fine layer of couverture to form whole balls, optionally filled beforehand; for a sophisticated finish, powder the surface with gold dust.
