I tried to thin white chocolate so that I could drizzle it but I now know you don't add clear syrup. How in the world do you thin it? I'm so glad someone knows. I ended up shaking it off the spoon. Not the effect I was looking for. icon_cry.gif

You can add a little Crisco to it.
I usually melt my chocolate and the Crisco all together at the same time.

It's amazing what you can learn on here. I had no idea you could us Crisco and have no idea what Paramount Crystals are but will look into it. Thanks so much.

Melted Cocoa butter or regular vegetable oil will do the trick too.

Thank you Shirley W for providing the most favorable answer (especially if dealing with real chocolate)...why would you want your delicious chocolate to taste like CRISCO, YUK.
