How to get a shiny chocolate?

shiny chocolateEver wonder how to make your chocolate candy comes out shiny? The secret is to take the extra time to temper the chocolate first.

But sometime you just don't have the extra time, in this case you can "cheat" a bit by just adding some paraffin to the chocolate when you are melting it. This helps make the chocolate shine.

Depending on what chocolate you are using to start with, it may already be tempered. If you melt it very carefully without letting it get too warm, the chocolate will keep it's temper and save you all the hassle.
