Candy Shapes are used to decorate cakes on almost every theme. Here, we show you how to make your own candy shapes to decorate cakes and cupcakes.

Supplies you will need:

Directions:

Melt the candies according to directions given on the package. If you need colored candies, add food color to the melted candy. Pour candy into molds slowly. Tap the mold gently to release air bubbles, if any. Freeze the candy until hard. It will take about 15 to 30 minutes.

Remove the candies from the molds. To remove, place a flat surface on top of molds and gently turn over. Tap the bottom of the molds to release. If desired, you can paint your molds with petal dust.
