How To Make Edible Crayons || Krayon Yang Bisa Di Makan? Mau Dong!

Hi Friends,

Did you know on March 31st was National Crayon Day?. I wanted to blog about it but Easter gatherings and whatnot kind of took some of my precious Steemit time 😂 So only now I can blog about it.

The kids and I made edible crayons for National Crayon Day. Not too neat as real Crayola would, but at least ours could really be used to color drawings as well 😂

But my gosh, just like my first time making vegan modeling chocolate (from scratch), it took me a bag of cocoa butter (250 g at $16.99 😅) for only 2 chocolate covered apples and a little modeling chocolate, that was expensive trials and errors, although in the end I did get cute apples.

The same with these crayons.

I used half bag of cocoa butter to make them and not all was a success. While the blue and red turned up good, as what modeling chocolate should be, the green one was gritty 🙄

Wish vegan white chocolates are easier to find. Hopefully someday would be much more affordable as well.

For now, I will keep creating recipe myself until I perfected mine too. Seriously tho, if you Google, there isn't a single recipe how to make vegan white modeling chocolate from scratch or even regular vegan modeling chocolate from scratch (at least I couldn't find any), so am pretty happy with my result.

Enough rambling, here is how I made them bad boys 😊

Ingredients - For One Color

• 1/4 c cocoa butter chips
• 1/3 c icing sugar
• 2 1/2 tbsp coconut oil
• 2 1/2 - 3 tbsp vegan/plant based protein powder, vanilla (mine was Vega, protein & greens)
• gel food coloring (Wilton is vegan friendly)
• 1/2 tbsp clear corn syrup

Additional

• enough corn syrup
• edible paper
• edible pen

How To

• Melt cocoa butter in microwave at 30 seconds intervals (up to 2 mins)
• Stir in coconut oil to melt, let stand for 10 mins at room temperature

• Stir in icing sugar followed with protein powder
• Stir in food coloring (color won't mixed, no worries)
• Let chill until firm, or you can freeze it too, only 15 minutes or so it would be solid hard

• Take out from freezer, break apart
• Heat a chunk of chocolate at 10 seconds intervals, just until melt, not boiling
• Stir in enough corn syrup, 1 tsp at a time, mixture will become thicken, but there would be so much grese out. You want to pour the oil out.
• Place mass into ziplock and chill to harden in the fridge (8-10 mins)

• Take out and massage with your hand, using plastic hand gloves if needed, and shape into crayons
• Let chill to harden again (5 mins)

• Cut edible paper into rectangle, moisten it with water and attach it on crayon. Let chill again (to dry paper)
• With edile pen write crayon on edible paper.

Ta-daaaa 😊

Hai teman!

Tanggal 31 Maret kemarin, disini Hari Crayon Se-Nasional. Lucu yah ada hari gituan 😂

Saya dan anak2 buat crayon yang bisa dimakan 😂 Dasar ga ada kerjaan yak, ayam enak kok makan crayon 😂

Tenang2, ini crayon terbuat dari cokelat kok 😉

Ini resepnya, kalau tertarik, tapi vegan yak, mengolah cokelat sendiri tanpa memakai produk hewani

Bahan2

• 1/4 gelas cocoa butter (bongkahan cacao mentah, bahan dasar buat cokelat)
• 1/3 gelas gula bubuk
• 2 1/2 sdm minyak kelapa yang solid (bukan yang cair)
• 3 sdm bubuk protein dari tumbuhan
• pewarna makanan yang berbahan dasar minyak (gel) bukan cairan
• 1/2 sdm sirup jagung

Bahan Tambahan

• sirup jagung secukupnya
• kertas yang bisa dimakan (beli online)
• pena yang berisi pewarna makanan (beli online)

Cara Membuat

• Cairkan bongkahan cacao, aku sih pakai microwave, setiap 30 detik, ku aduk (hingga 2 menit)
• Masukkan dan aduk hingga mencair minyak kelapa solid
• Diamkan selama 10 menit
• Masukkan gula bubuk, aduk
• Masukkan bubuk protein, aduk
• Beri pewarna serta sirup jagung
• Masukkan kulkas hingga mengeras
• Patahkan cokelat dan ambil satu patahan
• Lelehkan di microwave sebentar, lalu beri sirup jagung 1 sdt setidaknya, aduk hingga mengental. Jika menghasilkan minyak, buang minyaknya
• Bungkus cokelat lunak ini dan masukkan ke kulkas sebentar, biar agak mengeras
• Keluarkan dari kulkas dan bentuk menjadi krayon
• Potong kertas (yang bisa dimakan), lembabkan dengan air dan bungkus krayon. Masukkan kulkas hingga kertas mengeras

• Keluarkan krayon dari kulkas dan beri tulisan dengan pulpen (berisi pewarna makanan)

Jadi deh 😊 Ribet yak 😂

Thanks For Looking!
