My name is Tara and I'm a National Founding Leader for Cherish Bound. An amazing direct sales company founded 5 years ago by 2 amazing people with a vision for traditions, stories, and families. Outside of my family, Cherish Bound is my passion and my life. I've been waking up for four and a half years thanking God for this amazing opportunity. I find myself thinking, "Is this for real?

Make your own chocolate Easter bunny

We had fun yesterday using this kit to make chocolate Easter bunnies.

chocolateeasterbunny1

We found the kit at our cake and candy supply store. It comes with enough melts to make 1 solid bunny or two hollow.  You simply melt the chocolate and pour into the mold.  We had to keep pressing the mold together but otherwise it worked great. I would love a smaller bunny!

chocolateeasterbunny

The mold worked great with real chocolate, however I didn't get it quite tempered right---- this bunny didn't shine. The kids didn't care, they were thrilled to see the process.
