Ingredients

  • 200 g Chocolate Wafers (break into small pieces for even melting)
  • 4 pieces Empty Plastic Straw (straight, clean, no bends)
  • 4 sheets Crayon Wrapper Paper (plain white paper, cut to size (2" x 2"))
  • 1 tsp Vegetable Oil (optional, helps thin chocolate for smoother coating)

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate

    Place broken chocolate wafer pieces in a microwave‑safe mixing bowl, add the tsp of vegetable oil, and microwave on high in 20‑second bursts, stirring between bursts, until fully melted and smooth.

    Time: PT2M

  2. Load the syringe

    Remove the plunger, pour the melted chocolate into the syringe barrel, then replace the plunger to create a smooth flow.

    Time: PT1M

  3. Fill the straw

    Insert the syringe tip into one end of the empty plastic straw and gently push the chocolate through until the straw is completely filled.

    Time: PT1M

  4. Coat the interior

    Hold the filled straw over the tray and shake it back and forth for a few seconds so the melted chocolate coats the inner walls evenly.

    Time: PT2M

  5. Let the chocolate set

    Place the coated straw on a tray at room temperature and allow it to harden completely.

    Time: PT30M

    Temperature: 25°C

  6. Remove and wrap

    Once solid, gently slide the chocolate tube out of the straw and wrap it in a crayon wrapper sheet for easy handling and serving.

    Time: PT1M
