Will it work?? or i thought about poured fondant, or can i tint white chocolate i want to make the tuxedo strawberries with pink jackets on?? What ya think
Thanks to all

personally I think the candy melts would be "not so tasty"......I've tinted white chocolate to red before for valentine's day and it worked fine plus tasted yummy......they're even better when you inject them with champagne

I have done it, and actually it works quite well. I am kind of a chocolate snob, but I just thought it would be easier. I was pretty happy because I thought they tasted pretty good.

I've used the candy melts myself, just get better ones... such as Merkens or the Wilton premium (not sure if they come in white). For some reason, I really like the premium Wilton ones, and I too am a chocolate snob. I just think they have a very good "real" chocolate flavor. Also, make sure you get the white white ones - some are a bit yellowish and I don't think they'll make the transition to pink well.
Anyway, I've never had a complaint when I used the candy melts instead of real chocolate, can't say myself, as I don't like strawberries (gasp)!

yes, but any confectionary coating (like almond bark) would work. The bonus is that you dont have to worry about tempering it or anything. If you use just straight chocolate it might not set up the way you want it to. The candy melts are really made for that type of thing. I mean it doesnt taste AS good as real chocolate but it really wasnt bad. I have a few things in my gallery that you can look at where i used candy melts or ghiradelli candy coating. (snow man cookies, santa cookies, tuxedo strawberries, chocolate transfers etc.)

I use the almond bark for strawberries all the time it has a fairly good flavor and always sets up nice and shiny where the real chocolate if it is not tempered properly can be very dull looking

thanks to all i will use the almond bark i think i will do a trial run this weekend
