If you’ve got chocolate and some basic candy-making supplies, you can make chocolate candy bouquets. These make a great gift that combines the decorative touch of flowers with the almost universal appeal of chocolate, for Valentine’s Day or pretty much any other special occasion. The great thing about this process is that once you’re set up you can make several chocolate bouquets almost as easily as one, so you’ll have plenty of unique, personal gifts for the special people in your life. Melt the chocolate gently in a double boiler over water; don’t let the water touch the bottom of the top pot. This will help preserve the smooth texture and flavor of the chocolate. Stir frequently. If you don’t have a double boiler, fill a saucepan with water, place a metal bowl on top, and melt the chocolate in the bowl. Spoon the chocolate quickly but carefully into the lollipop molds.
