INSTRUCTIONS
Melt chocolate flavored candy wafers according to instructions. Fill heart lollipop cavities with melted candy wafers.
Insert lollipop sticks into stick channels in the candy mold cavity, so that approximately 1" of one end of the lollipop stick is inserted into the melted candy wafers. Then rotate the lollipop stick by rolling it with your fingers, so that the end of the stick becomes completely covered with melted candy wafers.
Tap mold on flat surface to remove air bubbles. Chill 10-15 minutes.
Invert candy mold and tap on flat surface to remove candy pieces.
Once candy heart lollipops are finished and have reached room temperature, wrap lollipops in desired colored foil wraps. Tie a ribbon around each lollipop stick.
Cut a hole out of the front of the card in the shape of a heart or use pre-cut window card. Tape the foil-wrapped heart lollipop to the inside page of the card, with the heart shape of the lollipop lined up with the cutout design in the front cover (so that the lollipop shows through when the card is closed).
Decorate the front of the card with stickers. Use markers to personalize each card with your own message. Personalized candy cards make great favors, romantic gifts and get-well cards.
