How much ahead can I do a Chocolate Transfer? I would not refrigerate, but store Maybe in a zip lock? Will a couple weeks be okay?
I dont see why you couldnt do them ahead, I mean the chocolate is just melted...The candy melts sit out for who knows how long....?? I just think of it like a candy bar. Dont let it get dusty or to warm....
Thanks, that's what I was thinking, but wasn't sure. I haven't done one before. I've sort of made them, just using the melts to pipe a solid design on parchment, then using on my cakes. But I need to try a My Little Pony for granddaughter's birthday. I want to get my decorations done ahead as much as possible, as I need to travel 8 hours to see them. I'll secure it (well cushioned) for travel and put it in a cooler with other ingredients for travel.
I have been practicing chocolate transfers for a little while now and here is a great tip...do your transfers on a piece of plastic (I used report covers) that way they turn out nice and shiny! (otherwise I think they have a more dull matte finish) You can see my pooh and spongebob cake in my photos to see what I mean!
Wow!! Those are great!! Thanks for the plastic tip. I wouldn't have thought of that. For the stand up transfers, do you add more at the bottom, to stick into the cake?
