So I thought I would post the round two results. I used a folded piece of tin foil to catch the stream of sugar after each mold was filled. It was much neater (I guess this is where the silicon "boat" came into play that was mentioned before). However, it slowed me down, so by the end the sugar was getting too thick to pour nicely anymore. I think next time I will try Isomalt since it can be remelted. The second round looked better, though, but I guess I added too much color to the sugar because the jewels were much darker the second time (which I didn't like as much, but oh well.)
If you are interested in seeing, here is how it turned out.

Anyone have a solution in attaching these guys? I used white candy melts, but it makes them look cloudy. Would it be best to use a kitchen torch to melt the back and then attach next time?
