It took forever, but I finally got my cocoa spiders to work the way I wanted! I still need to go back and fully document exactly how I made these, step by step, but for now, here’s a video sneak peek of what is coming soon!

These are 100% hand molded chocolate spiders stuffed full of miniature marshmallows. You drop them into a mug and then pour hot milk over them. As they melt, they release all their mini-marshmallow “eggs” while also turning the hot milk into cocoa! It’s dark, delicious, and disgustingly magical!
I decided to test out my spider making skills and see how ‘realistic’ they were by leaving them around the house for my family to find.
Needless to say, I’m in a bit of trouble now…but it was worth it.
They might be a little too cute, but what a great idea!
Omg! You are seriously so amazing. I can’t get over how cool these are!! :O
Thank you so much! My family isn’t too happy with me for making these (I keep leaving them out for them to find) but they certainly don’t complain when it comes time to eat them!
Haha, I can’t blame them! Spiders creep me out so much but these cocoa ones would be welcome even in my kitchen! 😛 I just freaked out over a spider in the kitchen a little bit ago actually, but unfortunately for me mine was not of the delicious hot cocoa variety. (Then again, I didn’t exactly stick it in a mug with some heated milk to find out!) 😛
Ha ha! You just made me laugh. 🙂
Dude! That was awesome! Spider eggs coming out – I think you’re a genius! evil genius, that is.
