I first saw these on Pinterest and knew that I wanted to give them a go. They are super easy and simple to make but look really effective. You could swap out the white chocolate for dark or even milk chocolate or you could mix it up and make a combination of all three.
You will need a heart shaped silicone mould – I usually use this to make ice cubes in mine but it doubles up perfectly as a chocolate mould! I ordered some pink, white and red sprinkles from eBay to make this and they arrived in separate bags so I’ve mixed them all up and now I have perfect Valentines sprinkles, ready for cupcakes, chocolates and any other Valentines cakes and treats.
Finding the pink, red and white chocolates was a little tricker – you could use m&ms or smarties, but I didn’t really want to buy loads of bags and have to sort through them but luckily I found a box of pink, red and white chocolate hearts from Tiger which were perfect.
