I love working with chocolate candy clay. It is simple to make using a bag of candy melts or almond bark with some corn syrup. The only trick is never to let water get in the mix as it will harden.

Ingredients
- Pumpkins
- 1 12 ounce bag orange candy melts
- ¼ Cup corn syrup
- Stems and Leaves
- 4 ounce green candy melts or green leaf edibles
- 2 Tablespoons corn syrup for green candy melts
How to Make
- Melt candy in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave at 30 second intervals (stir) and microwave more if needed. Add the corn syrup. Do not add any water as this will ruin the recipe.
- Stir until the batter seizes up and gets to a soft-like dough.
- Dump dough into a Ziploc bag or saran wrap. Leave at room temperature for 8 hours or in the fridge for 2-3 hours.
- Thaw slightly and knead to create a pliable dough.
- Mold pumpkins in a ball, using a dull knife to create the lines on the pumpkins.
- Add edible green leaves or make your own using green candy melts.
