Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

hi anyone know what would be the best chocolate for molding and carving into shapes thank you xxx

Hi annabel

You’d need something like Belcolade which is high end quality chocolate for tempering. Normal 70% chocolate which we use for ganache will probably work but won’t have the same smoothness. Chocolate comes in different grades so it’s important to get one which will be suitable for the purpose you want it for. If you look here http://www.cakeflix.com/online-cake-decorating-courses/free/suppliers Paul gives a suppliers list which includes Belcolade. I don’t want to recommend a particular type of chocolate to you because you’d need to discuss your needs with the supplier.
