Basic Equipment To make Your Chocolate

Here are basic equipments to make your chocolate candy:

Candy Molds
Most candy molds are made of plastic and are fairly inexpensive, so you can stock up on a variety of shapes and sizes for different occasions.

Lollipop Sticks
If you'll be making chocolate lollipops, remember to buy some lollipop sticks as well.

Small Paintbrushes and Fat-soluble Food Coloring
For multicolored chocolates, you'll need some small paintbrushes and fat-soluble food coloring, which is available at craft stores and specialty kitchen supply stores.

Small Palette Knife
Lastly, you'll need a small palette knife or offset metal spatula for smoothing and scraping off excess chocolate once you pour it into the mold.

A good candy thermometer.
It is possible to make candy without one, but a glass candy thermometer is a great help to the beginner. If possible, buy one equipped with a metal clamp that attaches to the side of the pan.
