about us
Welcome to the delicious world of Chocolate Craft Kits.

What are chocolate craft kits? It's a way for everyone to make beautiful and exciting chocolate decorations and centerpieces. In my career as a Pastry Chef, I had so much fun making party decorations like the chocolate jewelry box on this page that I wanted to share chocolate techniques with everyone. Before we came along, only professionals were able to enjoy this fun activity. We believe once you try it, you'll be delighted, too.

Real chocolate must be tempered to stay hard and shiny. We've done the hard part for you so you can have the fun. We have two types of chocolate kits: tempered chocolate (hard pieces of couverture, the highest quality of chocolate) ready to put together into a shape, and soft chocolate "clay" or modeling chocolate, which is chocolate with invert syrup added to make it soft and pliable. The candy "glue" holds pieces together, or can be used to make decorations like butterflies or write on a cake.

I have been using chocolate with both children and adults to make holiday craft projects and kids activities for many years. Children's birthday parties and holidays have always been opportunities for me to dream up new ideas for party activities and holiday crafts.

In 1992, when the first modeling chocolate kit was sold, I was both excited and nervous. After seeing how much fun people had with these products I was sure this company was my destiny. With the booklet "Modeling Chocolate Made Easy" people were able to use many of the techniques and tips from my professional career. What could be better than mixing chocolate with arts and crafts? I'm not sure how else I could reach out and bring smiles to so many people.

I would very much like to hear your comments and thoughts. Please email me: peggy@chocolatecraftkits.com. I wish you and your family the best of celebrations, and a very sweet time.        Peggy
