We have been sent Bumblebee Chocolate Lollipops to review by What2Buy4Kids. Upon receiving the product I was very impressed at quality of the packaging, and how it was presented.
The Bumblebee Chocolate Lollipops arrive in a cardboard sleeve which you can slide off, then you are presented with a cardboard box which lifts to open.
What’s Inside?
Inside is the chocolate coloured tissue paper:-
250g Milk Chocolate
2 Strips of Bumblebee Transfers
8 Lollipop Sticks, Bags and Ties
Recipe card
Whats great is that you don’t have to purchase additional items, everything for making the Bumblebee Chocolate Lollipops are included in the box all you need is general kitchen items to help you.
How to make our Bumblebee Chocolate Lollipops
Melt the chocolate in your microwave for approx 50 seconds, mix, then back in for another 20 seconds then mixing, making sure all the chocolate is fully melted, adding additionally 10 seconds a time if not fully melted.
Prepare the transfer sheets by laying it on a tray which will fit in the fridge, we used the chopping board!
So now we are to make sure the rough side of the transfer sheets are facing up so the bees will come out on our lollies once the chocolate has set.
Using a table spoon we dolloped the chocolate onto the transfer sheets (approx 2 tablespoons make the perfect size) you can fit 4 lollies per sheet.
Next we put the lolly sticks into the chocolate and twist to coat the stick all around in the lolly.
If you’re wanting to get really creative you can sprinkle your favourite treats such as Smarties, marshmallows, crumbled biscuits or any other of your favourite sweets you love onto the chocolate lollies before they set.
So this is what Grace chose to do, she wanted to add marshmallows onto her lollies, and they look fabulous!
Set the lollies by leaving them at room temperature for 15 minutes, then we transferred them into the fridge for a further 30 minutes.
After waiting the 30 minutes we took them out of the fridge and the lollies just came straight up off the transfer and left a smooth shiny finish. So either side is now designed with bumblebees and marshmallows.
Wrap your newly made lollies using the bags and ties which are included in the kit. You now have 8 cute bumblebee lollies to share! Grace and Jake chose to share one each with their chosen friend at school which was a lovely surprise for them!
Our Thoughts
The Bumblebee Chocolate Lollipops were so easy to make, and ready in no time, and I must say the chocolate was high quality and tasted delicious!
I love how cute these are, everything that is left over when you have finished can be recycled leaving us no waste (apart from the chocolate which Grace and Jake enjoying scraping out the last of the chocolate from the bowl).
