Hi guys....when you make chocolate paste out of chocolate and corn syrup, I understand it becomes pliable and moldable. But does it harden the way fondant or gumpaste does? Also, can you roll it out like fondant to cover a cake or is it mainly used for decorations?
Thanks!
You can roll it out like fondant to cover a cake or mold flowers, etc for decoration. It will stiffen up but will not harden completely like gumpaste. It tastes good too!

this is the recipe I'm going to try....thanks for your answer cakemaker!
You're welcome!
Keep in mind that chocolate paste can become very soft if you have warm hands. It is like a tootsie roll. It can become pretty hard until you work it and then the more you work it the softer it gets. When I make flowers with it I sometimes have to set it in the fridge to stiffen up a bit. My son has very hot hands and can't work with it very well at all.
