Deco Melting Chocolate Tutorial
This tutorial will show you how to make a delicious melting dripping chocolate effect on your miniatures for decoden creations.
This is really like part 2 because I did make a previous tutorial on using puff paint as icing but in that tutorial I realized I used older puff paint so it came out harder and not as fluid. So I wanted to make this tutorial to show you the true texture of puff paint and how it can be used to make delicious deco sauce or melting ice cream and other cool effects.
So lets get started.
Materials Needed
- Puff Paint
- Item to cover in puff paint
Step 1: Take your puff paint and your item u want to cover. I used Scribbles 3D Paint and the color is called Hot Chocolate so its fitting that I make a melting chocolate effect with it. Yum
Step 2: Think about the pattern you want to create.
*I want to make it look like the chocolate is dripping and melting of the candy bar. I really should have the chocolate look like it had a bite taken out of it and then put the melting chocolate there but oh well lol maybe next time I think you get the point.
Step 3: Since this puff paint has a fine tip like an icing tip as you can see in the picture below its easy to pipe and make a melting dripping effect. Just squeeze the bottle in the shape that you want it to go on. It is pretty thick so you can let it dry vertically and it wont mess up.
You can also make it look like deco sauce
and there you go, a super easy and cheap way to make melting effect on your candy and ice creams. If you have any questions leave me a comment and I hope this tutorial was helpful.
I do have a part 2 of this tutorial that will show you how to make the chocolate with glue. So make sure to check back for that one.
Happy Crafting

Does the puff paint crack? I’ve heard alot of bad reviews about it, some saying that the paint starts to crack and chip off after a couple of days. I’m worried about that, since I’ll be making Deco for sale – I don’t want that possibility.
