Chocolate Frogs

It's been a long day, so I thought I'd just share a quick link today, but it's a pretty nifty one. Found this article on Mugglenet about making your own chocolate frogs with an official candy mold from Cinereplicas. It even comes with a pretty DIY fold-up box to put the frogs in so that it looks like it came straight from Honeydukes. Check out the video in the article to see Mugglenet staffer Zoe trying out the mold and turning out some surprisingly professional-looking frogs.

Checking it out on Cinereplica's website, it looks like the mold costs about $20 (with 8 boxes included), but you can enter to win one for free (see the article for details). I know it sounds like I'm shilling for them, but I think it's pretty cool and I'm tempted to buy one myself even though I really don't need it. They have a lot of other HP merch, and I'm also trying to restrain myself from buying a $92 Slytherin robe that I would probably only wear on Halloween. (But it looks so cool and would go with the Slytherin tie and scarf that I already own!)
