I like candy but I like my health too. So I started buying the big "62% or more cacao bars" to make my own candy.
Peanut butter balls are my favorite, and the 2nd is melted chocolate with dried fruit. Nothing fussy.
So, I took out my chocolate molds from when I had little kids and thought I'd mold chocolate for a living (ha, being a legal secretary pays the bills better) and gave away most of the holiday and Happy Birthday ones. I kept some and kept the ones that have 12 cavities to a sheet.
An ounce of chocolate molds to about 4 candies. It's messy to fill that many and I'd rather just eat 1 or 2 to fulfill my 1 ounce every day allotment.
So - I want to order new molds, but I don't know sizes very well - I see molds with cavities 3 inches by 1 1/2 inches. Is that going to be huge and ungainly to eat? Those are rectangular and 4 on a sheet.
The other molds I'm looking at, are 6 on a sheet, and are 1 3/4 inch by 1 inch, and 2 inches by 2 3/4 inch (both rectangle shapes).
Thanks.
