Notes

No matter which topping you use to cover your treat, it should be a consistency thin enough to flow easily, but not so thin that it completely runs off the sides of the treat. If Candy Melts® are too thick, add EZ Thin Dipping Aid™ or solid white vegetable shortening a little at a time until candy is smoothed and thinned to pouring consistency. Never use vegetable oil, butter, milk or any liquids; these all make the candy break or seize
