3-D Santa Sleigh

 

Items needed:

3-D Christmas Sleigh Mold

Chocolate or Confectionary Coating

Pastry Bag or Zip lock bag

Note:  Chocolate will require tempering while Chocolate Confectionary Coating (used here) is easier to work with in the kitchen with little helping hands.

You will need the chocolate mold along with a microwave safe bowl to get things started. 

Place chocolate confectionary coating in bowl. 
Place in microwave for 30 seconds.  Remove

Start to stir the candy.  Note:  the heat from the bowl will also aid in melting coating.  If chunks remain... place back into microwave and melt for 10 more seconds

Pour candy into mold

Save leftover chocolate.  You will need it to connect your pieces later

Shake mold gently up and down on the countertop.  This will help to fill in all the gaps in the mold and remove any air bubbles.  Add additional chocolate if mold is not filled.

Let mold sit on countertop until hard. (about 15 min)

Turn mold over on towel.
Melt reserved chocolate.  This will make the "glue" to hold each piece together

Place chocolate in pastry bag or zip lock bag and clip a very small piece off the corner

Start with the base of the sleigh and start attaching your pieces

 Let it dry before moved
Fill your sleigh with your favorite holiday treats
