You can easily use your chocolate moulds for cake decorating modelling as long as you follow some basic techniques - tried and tested!Chocolate moulds do not give the same indent detail as silicone moulds but when using for simple decorations they are an easy and cost effective way to do the decorations.
What we did!
-Firstly we made some modelling paste using the shell pink regalice and some gum traganath. Knead 1tsp of Gum trag into 250grams of Regalice to give you a nice modelling paste. Wrap in gladwrap and leave to sit for about 1-2 hours. (You must use either a modelling paste or gumpaste in the moulds as it is easier than plain fondant/sugarpaste)
-Sprinkle your castle chocolate mould with cornflour and have a baking tray ready lined with baking paper on it sprinkled with cornflour.
-Press your icing into the castle mould pinching off the excess then push out straight away and lay on your tray lined with baking paper/cornflour to dry overnight.
-We put our castles on some 20# wire cut so it would stand up and also dusted with
sugarflair shimmer pink. We also added some little blossoms with our ejector cutter blossom set
