How to Make Glittery Chocolate Lips

Hi everyone! I wanted to share this fun and glamorous tutorial on how to make glittery chocolate lips for your Valentine’s Day desserts. I love glitter on pretty much everything, so I had to make some glitter chocolates for Valentine’s Day!
Chocolate Lips Tutorial

Supplies Needed to Make Lip Chocolates
- Mini Lips Mold
- Pink Compound Chocolates
- Red Compound Chocolates
- Mini Offset Spatula or Scraper
- Edible Glitter (I use FDA approved Prism Powders from Fancy Sprinkles. My code CAKEINSPO15 will save you a 15% discount. You can find other edible glitters on Amazon as long they are EDIBLE!)
- Sponge Stippler
Edible Glitters used: Rose Quartz Pink Prism Powder Champagne Gold Prism Powder
What is Edible Glitter?
Edible glitter means it is okay to use it on your desserts or food. Any craft or store-bought glitter is NOT edible. I can’t stress enough that you cannot just go to Michaels or Hobby Lobby and buy glitter unless they specifically are edible as stated on the package in the cake decorating aisles. It would be best to buy edible glitters from companies that produce edible products.
What is Compound Chocolate?
Compound chocolate is made of cocoa powder and vegetable fats such as vegetable oil, palm kernel oil, or coconut oil. Compound chocolate is also called confectionery chocolates, and coating chocolate and looks and tastes like chocolate. It is best for candy making, dipping, molding, and such because it doesn’t require tempering. Pure chocolate requires tempering, so if you were to use pure chocolates for this tutorial, you would need to temper, or you’ll have chocolate that won’t harden.
