I just tried dipping a batch in candy melts, but it seemed really thick and hard to work with. Let's just say, I'm not getting a smooth coating. What are you guys using? Should I try pouring ganache over them? I need them for tomorrow, Thanks for any help!

Try adding some shortening to your candy melts, a little at a time. This will make them thinner in consistency and much smoother.

I actually add little milk to thin the consistenecy and little butter to make them look shinner. Hope it helps u icon_smile.gif
