My cocoa butter came hard. How do I melt Chef Rubber Colored Cocoa Butter?

At the end of each 10 second interval remove from microwave and shake the bottle of colored cocoa butter.

Can I melt my cocoa butter multiple times?

Chef Rubber colored cocoa butter can be melted multiple times. In order to keep your cocoa butter warm while you work with it, warm it up in the microwave according to the instructions above/ on the side of the label and keep in the cocoa butter warmer.

Why should I overnight my transfer sheets?

Chef Rubber transfer sheets are made from Chef Rubber colored cocoa butter. The thin layer of cocoa butter is heat sensitive and will melt in warm temperatures. During the warmer spring and summer months, we advise that when you order transfer sheets, you select overnight shipping to minimize the time transfer sheets are subjected to the heat. Transfer sheets can be packed with cold packs and in insulated boxes in order to keep them safe from the heat, however the ice packs do melt within a few hours of being placed in the box so overnight shipping is still recommended. Remember, we ship from Las Vegas, NV; so it may be much warmer than your current region.

What colorants should I use to color my fondants?

We recommend using Chef Rubber paste color or color emulsion gel.
