Does it frill like fondant? I've never worked with it (or even felt it for that matter) so I have no idea what to expect.
Thanks!
To better explain...if I want to make a ruffle. Can I use chocolate or won't it act the same?
Hello!
I'm new to modeling chocolate but I was able to do a whole bunch of stuff with it. i haven't made a frilled ruffle with it but the few books i have show them frilling it for various things like flowers and pleats so i don't see why you could not do a ruffle.
post pics when you try it!

For the most part, yes. It's very dependent on the room temp and the thickness of the modeling chocolate.
I use a good metal ball tool to ruffle, using it the same way I would ruffle fondant or gum paste. I've never been good with a toothpick, so I haven't tried that. You have to work quickly, because too much friction warms it too much and the ruffle won't hold.
The hibiscus are all ball tool ruffled modeling chocolate.
