Hello aventer04

When you say melted chocolate do you mean a shiny ganache, or tempered chocolate wraps made on frozen marble or melted chocolate wraps made on acetate?
Out of all of these I would say modelling chocolate would be easiest although I would add sugarpaste with it to make it more pliable and also for economy reasons. I like Squire’s kitchen modelling chocolate it just seems to have the edge on others. There’s also Chocopan which comes in different colours and flavours like this

Hope I’ve understood your question properly, please post again if I’ve got it wrong!
