How to Make Chocolate Roses
- Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and completely melted. Ensure there are no lumps.
- Remove from heat and stir in the corn syrup and shortening until well combined. The mixture should be smooth and glossy.
- Lightly grease a piece of parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture onto the prepared surface and spread it evenly to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Allow the chocolate to cool slightly until it's no longer glossy, but still pliable (about 15-20 minutes).
- Once cool enough to handle, gently knead the chocolate until it becomes smooth and pliable. Add a tiny bit of powdered sugar if it is too sticky.
- Shape the chocolate into roses using your fingers or specialized tools. Roll out small balls, then shape them into petals and assemble them into a rose shape.
- Place the finished chocolate roses on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Allow the chocolate roses to harden completely in a cool, dry place for at least 2-3 days. Refrigerating can speed up this process but be sure not to let them get too cold.
