Filled Chocolate Heart

 This weekend I will go for a weekend trip with my husband and daughters to the other side of the country (I live in The Netherlands and 'the other side of the country' is not even 200km away) and because it will be Valentine's Day this monday I made this chocolate hearts for my daughters. 

I made the hearts by pouring melted chocolate in a mold, turning the mould until the chocolate was evenly divided over all sides. Then I put the heart in the fridgde and repeated the proces a couple of times after the chocolate was hardened, especially along the edges. 

When the layer of chocolate was thick enough, I peeled the mould from the chocolate and cut away the surplus along the edges. 



First I filled the heart with red and pink jelly beans and fixated a piece of cardboard wrapped in celophane to the heart by adding some molten chocolate on the edges of the heart, so it would stick to the celophane. After that I decorated the chocolate heart with sprinkles and little paper hearts.

To break the chocolate I added lollypops that can be used as a little hammer. 
Under the cardboard I've hidden two little presents (a face mask and a check to spend in a crystal store, because nowadays all teens seem to love crystals).
