Wilton Candy Melt Decorating Tip Kit
Specialized decorating kit for Candy Melts and melted chocolate
Warm Season Information
During hot weather (outside temperature above 25 °C), chocolate can be sensitive to transport. We recommend adding an insulated pouch to your order to preserve the product’s integrity until delivery.
The Wilton Candy Melt Decorating Tip Kit is specially designed to work with Wilton Candy Melts (colored chocolate discs ready to melt) and melted chocolate in general. It includes high-temperature compatible nozzles, an ergonomic applicator, and accessories to create flowing chocolate decorations directly on cupcakes, layer cakes, pop cakes, and chocolate molds.
Designed for cake design enthusiasts who want to incorporate flowing chocolate into their creations without the complexity of tempering. The Wilton Candy Melts system works at 40-45 °C and hardens within minutes at room temperature, ideal for drip cakes, chocolate lettering, and molded decorations.

Patissland Tip for Fluid Candy Melts
Candy Melts can thicken as they cool during piping. To fluidify them: 1/ add 1 teaspoon of neutral vegetable oil (sunflower, grape seed) per 100 g of Candy Melts, 2/ reheat in 10-second intervals in the microwave, stirring, 3/ never add water (Candy Melts seize on contact with water and become unusable). For a perfect drip cake, the Candy Melt should have a texture close to béchamel sauce: neither too thick nor too liquid.
