Valentine's Day/ White Day Chocolate

In South Korea and Japan, girls give boys chocolates on Valentine's day, and boys give girls candies on a day called "White day" or March 14. So, to help the boys who are wondering what they should give their girlfriends on this day, I am uploading a post about how to make chocolates today! Girls, don't feel bad; you can use the recipe to make chocolates for your boyfriends too!

Needed materials and ingredients:
- Two bowls and two pots
- Two spatulas
- Deco pens
- Two pipping bags
- Couverture Chocolate (I bought dark chocolate and white chocolate)
- Sprinkles, nuts (you can use other ingredients to decorate the chocolates!)
- Chocolate mold or cupcake papers

How to make it!

1. Put a bowl in a pot with water, and put some chocolates when the water starts to boil. Then, mix them well with your spatulas.(Be careful not to have any water go inside the bowl with the chocolates!!)

While the chocolates are melting, you can cut some nuts into smaller pieces for decoration later on.

2. When the chocolates melt completely, take out the bowl from the water, and put it in a pot of cold water until cools down a little.

3. Put the melted chocolate in the pipping bags, then put it in the chocolate molds or cupcake papers.

4. Decorate them with deco pens, sprinkles, and nuts!

5. Cool them for about one hour, and you have your handmade chocolates!


Happy White day!
