AI have tried a couple recipes for White Modeling Chocolate and it is hard to work with. I am wondering if there is a recipe that exists that will give you similar results to that of using actual chocolate?????

I used actual white chocolate along with glucose and simple syrup in my recipe.

Did your recipe call for simple syrup?

Click here for my recipe

 

When you read it, you will see that using real chocolate (with cocoa butter, not hydrogenated oils) yields a "sturdier" modeling chocolate.

Make sure you watch the 'How NOT to make modelling chocolate' as well  - suprising the number of people who have been given the wrong information and think its something they are doing!

Don't use simple syrup. Use either corn syrup or glucose.

Thanks!  Can I ask?  If I am using the white chocolate Ghirardelli Baking and dipping bar for 8 oz of chocolate about how much glucose do you recommend?
