• Answer:

  Cornstarch is the answer here.......lots of it! Pour your cornstarch in a flat container, such as a square or rectangular pan. You can make impressions in the cornstarch with a variety of different things, such as the bottom of a shot glass, or cup, etc. Be careful not to bump the pan. Fill the resulting indentions with your candy liquid and let harden. When ready to remove, turn pan upside down on another pan (to catch the cornstarch). Place candy on waxed paper and dust the remaining cornstarch off. Going away ideas for cupcakes: check out Wilton online and take a look at their cupcake papers and wrappers. You might find something that fits perfectly. Possibilities: chocolate fudge cupcakes filled with fresh strawberry cream and topped with a white chocolate ganache. Other flavors might include spice cake cupcakes filled with apple pie filling and frosted with a caramel buttercream. Decorations might include little flags that say BonVoyage.
