Chocolate Heart Decorations

Chocolate figures can be made from dark, milk, white chocolate, or couverture. Depending on preferences and needs, you can create single-color figures or use two or even three types of chocolate to make various designs. These chocolate figures will decorate baked goods. I especially recommend them for decorating cakes, cupcakes, such as "Guinness chocolate muffins", desserts, and ice cream.

• 100g white chocolate
• 40g dark chocolate

Additionally:

• cookie cutter

1. Chop the white chocolate and melt it in a water bath.(You can find more about melting chocolate and tempering here: "Melting Chocolate / Tempering Couverture – Step by Step")
2. Pour the melted chocolate onto baking paper and spread it evenly with a knife to a thickness that is not too thick but also not too thin.
3. Chop the dark chocolate and melt it in a water bath. Using a small spoon, spread the chocolate over the white chocolate.
4. Leave at room temperature to set. The chocolate should harden but not be completely solid (otherwise, it will crumble when cutting).
5. When the chocolate is ready, carefully cut out the figures using any cookie cutter or slice the chocolate into any pieces with a knife. Leave it to set completely.

1. Carefully remove the figures from the paper.
