When I was a kid my mom helped me make homemade chocolate that we put into molds. I made them as Christmas presents one year for my friends, and they were a big hit too!

No, it wasn't hard at all 3lilangels! In some stores they actually have all of the chocolate made into chip like pieces. All you have to do is melt it, pour it into a mold, stick it in the fridge and there you go! The ones I made my mom and I poured into teddy bear molds, they were almost too adorable to eat!
Love & Hugzz, Your Friend, PurpleTeddyBear ;)

Well when I was in school (in Chile) my mom, my sister and I used to make chocolate for sale, and get some money...
so I remember making little houses (to decorate cakes), cellphones, pipes, shoes, hearts, tennis raquets, bunnys, mickeys, teddybears, roses... mmm bunch of them...
and last time I made some chocolate for a bachelorette party... so guess what was the shape!!

I like to make chocolate. I have tons of chocolate molds. I also use a chocolate that is an off brand and has a great taste. I love to find molds that are complicated to do. I also like to put colors into the mold. My latest project was a six inch long and eight inch high baby cradle. The cradle had to be assembled after the chocolate pieces were made. It took me one whole day to get the pieces all put together. I then filled it will baby rattles, bottles, and booties also made of chocolate. I gave in to my neighbor for her sisters baby shower. I also make pool tables. The balls are all colored to match a real pool table. I also make the sticks as well. The piece is about a pound of chocolate but well worth it. I have sold these to different pool leagues around. You can make money if you let people know that you can do something unique.

Well apart from making brownies, chocolate icing, or a chocolate cake, I have never made or attempted to make anything unique from chocolate. Mind you, I did make those fudge from condensed milk, but am not that adventurous, or rather, do not have the chocolate molds.
We used to buy those chocolate bunnies and I worked in a factory for a while where they made chocolate bunnies, etc., but no one made anything unusual, other that stuff designed for Easter, and Valentine. There were no chocolate ladies, etc. And when we bought the bunnies they were for our two boys and when my parents bought me and my brother chocolate bunnies, it was for Easter, no one was sick, and neither they nor me were doing it to be nice and perform a good deed.

When I was in high school my major was Culinary Arts. My favorite thing to do was to make fruit sculptures and things of that sort.
I once took chocolate, both white and dark, and created little mice out of it. I'd say that would be the most unique thing I've ever made. I still have photos of them...somewhere!

Neat picture
My Dad got roped into buying a uniquie item at an auction. The auctioner knew my Dad and was always ponning off stuff on him for a dollar when he got stuck and no one would buy something. So my Dad hears, "Gerald B. will take buy that for a dollar, sold!" Then they gave my Dad a number for the item. He gave the person at the register a dollar and the number. She gave him a can of chocolate covered ants.
Moral of the story, Beware of auctioneers as your friends.
