  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Chocolate Mixture

  • 6 oz / 170 g white chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (or shortening)
  • 3 drops lavender candy oil
  • A few drops purple food coloring (oil-based)

Instructions

  1. Melt Chocolate Chips: Add the white chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until fully melted. Alternatively, use a double boiler method by placing a heat-proof bowl with chocolate chips and coconut oil over a simmering pot of water, stirring continuously until melted.
  2. Add Lavender Oil and Colorant: Stir in the 3 drops of lavender candy oil and a few drops of oil-based purple food coloring into the melted chocolate until evenly incorporated.
  3. Mix Well: Gently stir the mixture until the lavender oil and the purple color are fully blended with no visible streaks.
  4. Transfer into Pastry Bag: Pour the chocolate mixture into a disposable piping bag, then snip off the tip to prepare for piping.
  5. Pipe Chocolate Chips: Line a small cookie sheet with wax or parchment paper. Pipe small dot-shaped chocolate chips onto the sheet, mimicking store-bought chocolate chip size, until all the mixture is used.
  6. Freeze Chocolate Chips: Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes until the chocolate chips are completely solidified.
  7. Release and Store: Carefully peel the chocolate chips off the wax/parchment paper or gently bend the paper until the chocolate chips fall off. Transfer the chips into an airtight container for storage until ready to use.

Notes

  • Use oil-based purple food coloring to ensure it mixes well with the chocolate without seizing.
  • If coconut oil is not available, shortening can be used as a substitute for melting with chocolate.
  • Store the lavender chocolate chips in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain freshness.
  • These lavender chocolate chips add a unique floral note and purple color, making them perfect for decorating cakes, cupcakes, or other desserts.
  • Handle the chocolate gently to avoid bringing moisture, which can cause chocolate to seize.
