4Quick tempering - the 3 curves
Tempering crystallizes cocoa butter into a stable form. Without tempering, chocolate whitens, doesn’t shine, and doesn’t release properly.
| Chocolate | 1. Melting | 2. Cooling | 3. Reheat (work) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dark 60-72% | 50-55 °C | 28-29 °C | 31-32 °C |
| Milk 30-40% | 45-50 °C | 27-28 °C | 29-30 °C |
| White / Inspiration | 40-45 °C | 26-27 °C | 28-29 °C |
Tip: To simplify, use the "Mycryo" method (Valrhona cocoa butter powder): melt at 40-45 °C, add 1% Mycryo at 34-35 °C, mix. Quick tempering without complex curves.

Frequently asked questions
How many chocolates can I make at once?
This mold has 1 cavity of about 91 mL each. With a single molding, you make 1 chocolate. For professional batch use, it is common to use 3-5 identical molds in parallel.
Should I grease the silicone mold before use?
No. Silikomart silicone is naturally non-stick. Properly tempering your chocolate is enough for perfect unmolding. Greasing would create greasy marks on the chocolate surface.
My chocolate blooms after crystallization, why?
Blooming (efflorescence) indicates a failed tempering: either the melting was too hot (>55 °C), or the cooling was insufficient. The taste is not affected, but the shine and snap are lost. Remelting and retempering corrects the defect.
Can I use Candy Melts or Deco Melts instead of chocolate?
Yes, absolutely. Candy Melts (Wilton, Fun Cakes, PME Cake) are designed to melt without tempering and are an excellent alternative for beginners or children. The result will be slightly less shiny than with tempered chocolate.
How to achieve a mirror finish on chocolates?
Three keys: (1) precise tempering at the temperatures in the table above, (2) perfectly clean and dry mold, (3) crystallization at stable room temperature (18-20 °C), not in the refrigerator (condensation causes spots).
Note: For a perfect unmolding on the first try, keep your mold flat at room temperature before use. A mold that is too cold (just taken from a cool cupboard) creates a thermal shock with the tempered chocolate.
