Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz white chocolate or candy melts
- 4 oz red candy melts or food coloring
- 1 edible black gel or marker
- 10–12 round candies (for pupils)
- Optional: 6-8 candy eyeballs
- Optional: 2 tbsps red icing for extra detail
Instructions
- Gently melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth and creamy.
- Using clean hands or a small spoon, carefully shape the melted chocolate into uniform round spheres resembling eyeballs, placing them on a parchment-lined tray.
- Create realistic bloodshot effects by drizzling red candy melts or using red food coloring in thin, veiny lines across the white chocolate surface.
- With a food-safe black gel pen or edible marker, precisely draw a dark circular pupil in the center of each white chocolate eyeball.
- Enhance the spooky design by strategically placing small round candies or pre-made candy eyeballs to add depth and texture.
- Chill the completed eyeball candies in the refrigerator for approximately 15-20 minutes at 40°F until completely firm and set.
Notes
- Ensure white chocolate is melted slowly and smoothly over low heat to prevent burning or seizing.
- Use toothpicks or dipping tools to create perfectly round eyeball shapes and maintain consistent size.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute white chocolate with vegan candy melts or coconut milk-based chocolate.
- Work quickly when adding red bloodshot lines to prevent the white chocolate from hardening before decorating.
