Clean out the details of the candy mold using warm water only, no soap. Dry each cavity in the mold with a paper towel or microfiber cloth to ensure no water spots remain.
Microwave candy melts in a glass or ceramic bowl in 20-second intervals until melted. Stir candy melts in between intervals.
Use a spatula to fill one corner of the bag with the melted candy melts. Snip a small corner off the tip of the plastic bag and squeeze the candy towards this corner. Twist the top of the bag closed.
Pipe the candy melts into the candy mold, taking care to fill in all the edges and crevices. Tap the mold gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.
Place the filled mold into the fridge for 20-30 minutes or until the bottom of the mold appears cloudy – this means the candy has set.
Remove the candies from the mold by turning the mold over onto a flat surface covered in parchment paper. Gently tap the mold and the candies will fall out.

Make sure molds are clean, 100% dry, and are not dusty or scratched. Make sure the molds are at room temperature. We suggest wearing white cotton candy makers gloves when handling the molded chocolate so that you don't get fingerprints on the chocolate. Do not spray or grease the molds.
Fill each cavity with your filling of choice, but make sure it's room-temperature or cold—a hot filling could melt all your hard work. Leave about 1/8 inch below the edge, and then top if off with the rest of the melted chocolate or candy. Tap the mold to release any air bubbles, and chill to set.
