Tips

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy transport.
Be sure to read instructions on the melting chocolate carefully and follow them closely.
Paramount crystals, coconut oil, or vegetable oil can help melt chocolate, although you may not need those if you're using candy melts.
The melted chocolate will be extremely hot. Always handle the hot bowl and the chocolate with care. This is a job best suited to adults.
Chocolate becomes hard fast, so work quickly!
If the chocolate seizes up and won't melt, just toss it. You can't save it. Starting over is the only option.
