and turning the selector control to Setting
2 for 10 minutes. (The Power Indicator
Light will illuminate on Settings 1 and 2).

excess chocolate from the moulds back
into the melting pot for re-use.

Allow the chocolate filled moulds to dry

several hours or until the chocolate is
solid.When firmly set, turn the mould
upside down and gently press the
chocolate shapes out of the moulds
onto a clean dry plate or serving tray.

clean, dry, air-tight container and avoid
over-handling as this may smudge or
soften the shapes.

Using the Large Heart Plastic
Mould:

Ensure the mould is clean and dry. Pour
approximately 150g melted chocolate into
the mould; the entire mould should be
thickly coated with chocolate. Use the
spatula or a pastry brush to evenly spread

mould.Allow to dry, then cool for several
hours until the chocolate shape is firmly
set. Cool in the refrigerator if desired.
Once set, turn mould upside down, and
gently press the chocolate heart out of
the mould onto a clean, dry surface.The
heart shaped mould can be used as an
edible dish for desserts or as decoration
on cakes. See recipe section page 7 for
suggested uses.
