OK -- that makes sense. I chilled them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes and then put them out to thaw, but I did not check the temperature to make sure they had made it to room temp before I tried to un-mold (de-mold?) So next time I will be more aware of the temperature. Thanks for the tip.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a question about the results I got when I used a mold for the first time. In the attached photo you'll see that some of my molded candies came out fine while others did not. I am not sure if the problem was that my shell walls were too thin, or if it was because this is the first time I have used this mold. The problem was the flat surface on the bottom of the mold -- non of the sticking was on the sides. Is it normal to have problems the first time a mold is used? Any feedback would be appreciated.
