For this step you will need;



- Your design of what you want to trace on your wax paper (I'm using a Goomba image) You're best bet is to stick with easy images, and eventually move on to the more detailed ones.



- Once you have traced multiple images onto your wax paper, it's time to start melting your chocolate. The best method is the microwave. Keep in mind, since you are making multiple creations of the same image, it's best to pipe each creation one after the other with the colour of chocolate you have melted at that time.



- You will also have to examine the image to figure out which colour needs to be piped on first. For example, you wouldn't want to cover the entire image in chocolate, THEN add the eyes! you want to add the eyes first and move your way out.



- Examine your image and find out what colours you need. In this case, I need red, beige, brown and white. I couldn't find beige chocolate, so I just melted white with brown chocolate. It's a trial and error idea.



- So, melt the chocolate in a small bowl, mix with a spatula to make sure everything is combined and melted, make sure its not burning hot. I like to put it in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds.



- Add the melted chocolate to a Ziplock bag, and clip a tiny corner off the bag.



- You don't really need sturdy hands to do this, I shake when I do this, but try to stay within the lines of what you're tracing.
