I finished rolling up my cakepops and was going about the next step of melting up some chocolate. I set up my makeshift double boiler but when the candy melted it became thick and greasy with little lumps. It looked sort of like a dough! ![]()
I've used these before with the exact same method but I never had such a problem. The only difference is that I'm using lavender color whereas I used plain white chocolate before.
Also my microwave is sparking so I can't try that. ): What should I do? ![]()
Definitely sounds like seized chocolate. If your double boiler wasn't tight enough or if you water was too high, some steam may have condensed and run into your candy causing it to seize. Unfortunately there is nothing to do with it but to throw it out and start over.
