Candymaking 101

I don't know why, but every once in awhile I get these crazy ideas like making candy. Kristian's graduation theme was the rainforest and I could not pass up these cute little candies. By the end of the evening I had chocolate all over my pants and in my hair. One of my bottles got plugged and I squeezed a little to hard and I had a chocolate explosion.
Again, I forgot to rotate the picture but if you look at the yellow ladybug, you will see that it was the first of two explosions
I had frogs, ladybugs, butterflies and some flowers. All in all I made about 6 dozen candies. I wish we had taken more pictures but by the 2nd explosion, I was pretty grouchy.

What an awesome "mom" thing to do! My kids would faint if I made them chocolates! Guess I know who to call for advice if I ever decide I need to undertake such a messy project!
