|
I found this glass at the thrift store a few weeks ago, it was perfect for a chocolate candle. I tried to make the candle wax as close to the color of Dark Chocolate as I could....I mean if you can't have dark chocolate, why bother.
Last year I collected margarita glasses, the ones with stems in the shape of a cactus, and made candles in those as gifts.
I didn't keep one of those for myself, so this one is all mine.

Definately looks good enough to eat Toni.  I take it that the chocolates underneath the glass are real and not made of wax?

Ooops, I forgot to explain that the chocolates around the base of the glass are fake. They are rubbery and attached to the glass, that's why I thought it was perfect for a chocolate candle.

OK I'll stop drooling over those choccies now as I think rubbery chocolates would taste a tad unpleasant!!!
