Click to mark complete

  1. Clean lemon leaves with damp cloth and dry completely. Tint melted white candy green.
  2. Using a Decorator Brush, brush melted candy on back of lemon leaf to desired shape. Let dry on Flower Wave Drying Rack to add a curve to leaf.
  3. When dry, peel off leaf from candy leaf shape.

Notes

  • For a stunning effect, brush marbleized melted Candy Melts on leaves, or brush on Color Dust or Pearl Dust after candy has set. If using leaves other than lemon leaves, make sure they are non-toxic and safe for food use.
