What kind of chocolate should I use?
You can use any type of chocolate you prefer, but high-quality chocolate will yield the best results.
How do I melt the chocolate?
Follow the melting instructions on your chocolate packaging. Use a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

How do I clean the mould?
Wash the mould and accessories with warm, soapy water and dry them thoroughly.
Can I use this mould for other types of candy?

Troubleshooting
Chocolate coins are difficult to remove from the mould.
Allow the coins to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before attempting to remove them again. Ensure the chocolate is fully set.
Chocolate has white streaks or spots.
This is known as 'chocolate bloom' and is caused by improper temperature control. Ensure you are melting your chocolate correctly and keeping it at the appropriate temperature.
Coins are not shiny.
Ensure your chocolate is tempered correctly before pouring it into the moulds. This helps achieve a glossy finish.
