Graham cracker crumbs for packaging
Raffia, ribbon, or jute for packaging
Directions
Step 1: Melt the White Chocolate
Use a double boiler or microwave to melt the white chocolate. If using a microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between to prevent overheating.
Optional: Add a few drops of food coloring or flavored extract to the melted chocolate for customization.
Step 2: Prepare the Molds
Spoon the melted white chocolate into the molds, using a small spoon or piping bag for precision.
Tap the molds gently on the counter to remove air bubbles and ensure even coverage.
Step 3: Chill and Set
Place the filled molds in the refrigerator until the chocolate is fully set.
Carefully remove the chocolates from the molds, ensuring the intricate seashell details remain intact.
Optional: Brush with edible luster dust using a small brush.
Step 4: Package the Favors
Optional: Spoon 1 tablespoon of graham cracker crumbs into a clear cellophane bag. Place 3 seashell chocolates in a clear cellophane bag.
Tie the bag with raffia, ribbon or jute, and optionally attach a themed tag or charm.
