Gingerbread Kids Cocoa Bomb Tutorial
Cocoa Bombs are all the rage, how fun would it be to make this festive gingerbread bread kid cocoa bomb faces for your family.
What equipment is needed to make gingerbread bread kid cocoa bomb faces?
Only a few things are needed to make cocoa bombs:
6-Cavity Semi-Silicone, Microwave-safe bowls, Spoons, Microwave, and Piping bags
What ingredients are needed and how do I make it?
A few different colors of Candy melts (1/4 cup brown, handful of white, pink and red) Hot cocoa mix, mini marshmallows. I would caution you against adding sprinkles or large marshmallows as they are a choking hazard to small children. If you wouldn't give it to a kid in their chocolate milk, don't put it in a cocoa bomb!
Instructions for this tutorial
- Melt candy melts with the microwave power reduced to 50 percent (so you don’t burn the chocolate. Stir every 30 secs for 2 mins) if chocolate doesn’t fully melt after 2 mins put in on high for 15 seconds
- Spoon into molds. Be sure to completely cover the sides all the way to the top without getting it on the top of the mold.
- Freeze for 10 mins. Add an empty plate to the freezer at this time.
- Remove molds and carefully peel each dome out set on the plate placed in the freezer earlier.
- On half of the domes add 2 tbsp cocoa mix and marshmallows. To glue them together heat a pan by boiling it in hot water or placing it directly on the stove.
- Carefully melt the rims of the top domes and place on the bottom half holding the cocoa mix.
- Add all others to individual piping bags.
- Melt the white and black first. Following the instructions above but leave them in their bags.
- I used bowls to decorate the little faces because your hands will melt the cocoa bombs if you are not wearing gloves.
- Pipe a short zig zag line across the top of the face with the white candy melts.
- Next add the eyes in black with a white spec.
- Then melt the pink and red chocolates same as above
- Pipe a red nose (just a dot)
- To create the mouth, pipe a pink heart
- Leave cold until ready to use.
- Pour hot water or hot milk over the bombs, let melt, stir and enjoy!
