Why not just ice with a large star tip in a swirl pattern and put the baby chocolate melts on top (I.e. the botties or pacifier bottle)

How about making the tops look like fluffy clouds with your icing and put some Blue colored candy melt crosses on them..that's if you have a candy mold of crosses..if not and you have time to place an order there's lots of "Buy Now" places/stores on e-bay that sell wonderful candy molds at really great prices too....or make fluffy clouds with something else kinda precious yet Holy like on them icon_smile.gif

I do have some time...I will have to check that out. how can I make clouds? I'm thinking with like a #12 tip, or would that just make big blobs??

Your tip# 12 will be fine..practice on a piece of wax paper to form a technique...

Here's one of the e-bay stores I like to buy molds from, I actually found a really nice cross mold for ya to check out...they are really prompt and very affordable and shipping is reasonable too icon_smile.gif

they say "not for use with hard candy". what do you think they mean by that? you've ordered from this seller before?

Hard candy has to be made using higher temps, like lolly pops and such as...candy melts don't get quite that hot, they are just chocolate...so its really safe to use them in this type mold....

Yes I have bought from this dealer before last time around Christmas time cause I was making bookoos of Christmas candy as gifts, and had no issues at all with this dealer, they were fair priced and very prompt shipping...and packaged well too.

Glad I could help ya icon_smile.gif
