Melt chocolate, either in a double boiler or microwave. Allow chocolate to cool to 90-91°F, stirring often as it cools.
-
Start by adding 1/3 cup corn syrup to milk or white chocolate and 1/2 cup corn syrup to dark chocolate. Stir just to incorporate the corn syrup.
-
Pour out onto a cold surface like a granite countertop or marble cutting board. You can also use a baking sheet. Knead the modeling chocolate, adding small amounts of corn syrup if needed, until soft and pliable.
-
Let the modeling chocolate rest for 15 minutes before using it to sculpt figures, cut shapes or cover a cake. You can also add coloring, if desired. Wear food handling gloves and knead in the coloring.
-
Wrap any extra modeling chocolate tightly in plastic wrap, then seal in a zip top bag. Store at room temperature for up to two months.

Heat at 10-15 second increments, allowing it to sit for a moment before stirring vigorously. You want to allow the heat from the chocolate to melt the remaining pieces.

It\u0027s best to break off small pieces and knead them until soft and pliable enough to sculpt, using the warmth from your hands to make the chocolate pliable again. Dark chocolate will harden much more than milk or white. If it is just too hard to knead, you can heat it on the defrost setting in your microwave. Work slowly, breaking off pieces and heating them for 5 seconds at a time, kneading between each heating session. If you overheat the chocolate, you\u0027ll end up with greasy modeling chocolate. If during the process of heating it back up, you see that a spot looks greasy, let it sit and cool for about ten minutes before kneading it.","category":"Recipe/Ingredient Facts"}],"additionalContent":[],"faq":[],"tipCategories":[{"categoryName":"Editorial","heading":"More About This Recipe","cssClass":"recipePartStory","expandOnInit":false,"expandText":"More +","collapseText":"Less -","expandEventName":"","collapseEventName":"","image":"","tips":[{"title":"","description":"Making your own modeling chocolate is so easy, soon you\u0027ll be decorating your desserts like a pro!

Once you learn the basic techniques for making modeling chocolate, you can use it just like you would fondant. If you love the look of fondant but hate the taste, modeling chocolate is a perfect alternative. I always suggest starting with less corn syrup and adding more as needed until you get a pliable modeling chocolate.","category":"Editorial"}],"isExpandable":false},{"categoryName":"Kitchen Tested","heading":"More About This Recipe","cssClass":"recipePartStory","expandOnInit":false,"expandText":"More +","collapseText":"Less -","expandEventName":"","collapseEventName":"","image":"","tips":[{"title":"","description":"The recipe is Kitchens Tested.","category":"Kitchen Tested"}],"isExpandable":false}],"nutritionInfo":{"configuration":{"showAsTable":false,"noNutritionInformationAvailableMessage":"No nutrition information available for this recipe","poweredByText":"\u003cp\u003eNutrition information for this recipe is estimated using a leading nutrition calculation application, but is an estimate only.
