Here’s a fun twist on Valentine’s Day Chocolate: a Make Your Own Chocolate Kit from Glee Gum. This kit comes with all the ingredients you need to make a few Valentine’s Day treats.
The kit contains organic ingredients like cocoa butter, cocoa powder, confectioner’s sugar, starter crystals, a temperature indicator, paper candy liner, and whole cacao beans. It takes about 20 minutes to make some yummy chocolate drops and you can vary the taste by adding vanilla, nuts, or other flavors. The instructions are easy to follow and suitable for ages 8 and up without supervision, or for younger children with a helper. The kit also includes the story of chocolate.
Our reviewer, Kari, and her son, Curtis, said the kit was easy to use, high quality and fun. Curtis really liked the chocolate on strawberries!
If chocolate’s not your thing, try Glee Gum’s other candy making kits. They have one for chewing gun and one for gummies. All of the kits can be ordered online for $13.95 each, or order all three for $37.67.
