Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz high-quality dark chocolate (60-70% cacao), chopped
- 2 tbsp coconut oil or cocoa butter
- 1/4 cup salted caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar (for caramel drizzle)
- 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles or edible glitter, optional
- Gold luster dust (food-grade)
- Gold foil candy wrappers or edible gold paper for DIY wrapping
Instructions
- Melt the chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler), stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a small saucepan, heat the granulated sugar over medium heat until it melts and turns amber. Remove immediately and stir in caramel sauce to create a warm, pourable drizzle.
- Line a silicone chocolate mold (or small muffin tin) with foil cups or use edible molds shaped like classic chocolate bar segments.
- Pour a thin layer of melted chocolate into each mold, swirl to coat, then freeze for 5 minutes to set.
- Drizzle a small amount of warm caramel into the center of each chocolate-lined mold.
- Pour remaining melted chocolate over the caramel, smooth the top, and sprinkle with rainbow sprinkles or edible glitter while still wet.
- Freeze for 15–20 minutes until firm, then unmold carefully.
- To wrap: Brush each bar with a light mist of gold luster dust mixed with clear alcohol (like vodka), then wrap in gold foil, twisting ends like vintage candy.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, ensure all ingredients (especially sprinkles/caramel) are certified GF.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 1 month.
- Wrap just before serving to keep foil shiny and prevent condensation.
- Enhance the Wonka theme with candy-themed labeling: label each bar with ‘Scrumdiddlyumptious’ in whimsical font.
