Note: A natural process called "blooming" takes effect on the chocolate with change in temperature. Blooming looks like white streaks, but is a natural process of the sugar separating from the chocolate and it will remedy itself when melted and it does NOT effect the flavor. Chocolate is shipped at customer's risk during hot weather.

Melting - Microwave chocolate in 30-second intervals using microwave safe bowls, stirring in-between to distribute the heat, in order to avoid scorching the chocolate. Keep chocolate at a constant temperature to produce a smooth professional look. You can purchase a griddle, or use your stove top and frying pan. Lay two towels on the pan or griddle before placing the chocolate filled plastic bowl.
