You can check the recipe section and there is a recipe there. I just made a very small batch using 4 oz. dark chocolate and 2 tablespoons liquid glucose, warmed. Melt the chocolate in a metal bowl over hot boiling water being careful not to let the bowl touch the water. Stir in the warmed glucose until mixed, place in a plastic bag and refrigerate until cooled. There are a lot of different recipes so maybe someone else will reply. Good Luck!!!

I read the recipes but how do you dye it, if they don't have the candy melt colors you need?

I use 10 oz white chocolate chips melted mixed with 1/3 cup light corn syrup. let it set up for at least 2 hours, then i color it with gel colors i use for icing color... just knead it in. and let it set back up. The heat from your hands makes it soft pretty quick. I have used it a few timesand love it.
