Don’t you think it’s a cool idea? Ideal for parties and nobody can tell how easily you made them. Just a pack of your favorite white chocolate and seriously that’s all you need.

Next time when you have a party at home surprise people with these lollipops. If you like you can also use food color to add more interest to the look of these. Try sprinkling candies over or paint patterns or faces so as to match them perfectly with your theme. They will be a hit in kid’s party too.

Note:You might be wondering about the pictures being from some other blog. Bake My Love was originally a blog started by me which then got transfered here at blogspot.

MAKES APPROX. 35 PIECES

PREPARATION TIME: 45 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS:

200 g/ 7 oz baking white chocolate
100 g/ 3 1/2 oz icing sugar
Walnuts for decoration

METHOD:

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. So, that it does not stick to the pan

Beat the melted chocolate while it is hot

Add and beat sugar well. Sugar adds more thickness to the paste and prevents it from melting fast and keeps it from breaking as well.

Finally the batter is ready to be molded into lollipops. At this stage you can also add food color, sprinkled candies etc

Make balls with the batter and press on to the straws and let it dry. It will dry and get hard. It might be sticky to work with while molding into balls, you can use a very small amount of oil to prevent sticking

Now this is the best part. You can store these lollipops like chocolate it will not go bad. This gives you the independence to work ahead of your time and make them before hand. Use air-tight bags to refrigerate.
