At work they will periodically offer classes to employees that are not related to work. Tonight's class was on using chocolate modeling clay.
Chocolate modeling clay? Yep. You read that right.
Apparently someone somewhere decided to see what happens when you melt chocolate and then add some vegetable oil to it. You then let it sit at room temperature for a couple of hours and you then have edible modeling clay. Obviously it's hard to dye it if you use brown chocolate. But if you use white chocolate, dye away.
You can use the clay to make most anything you want, similar to how you use fondant. The teacher said ultimately it doesn't get as hard as fondant, making it easier to eat.
Here are the results of my class. I think I've got them in the order that I made them. If not, sue me.
I'd like to thing I got better as I went along.
It was fun and I may try my hand at other projects.
