For the chocolate I tempt it by adding more chocolate, in cold water or by blowing. Between 40-45 and then when it reaches 31 I use it.
In theory you have to lower it to 27 and raise it to 31 to use it ... for now I am trying with cheap chocolate and works.
The second time I try, and little by little more or less bonbons come out.
I have to use suitable paints. I think I am going to try a white background for the colours.
I have failed miserably trying to make the branches.
