12 ounces confectionery coating
Food coloring (optional)

PREPARATION:

  1. Melt confectionery coating in bowl over hot, not boiling water, stirring constantly. Add food coloring, a few drops at a time, until desired shade is obtained.
  2. Spoon into molds. Tap molds on countertop to remove bubbles. Refrigerate until firm. Bring to room temperature before unmolding to avoid cracking molds.

To make two-tone candies, choose molds with sections to allow for layering. Melt coating as directed. Spoon first layer of coating into molds; tap molds on countertop to remove bubbles. Refrigerate until firm. Spoon second layer into molds. Proceed as directed above.
