: What is the benefit of using modeling chocolate versus fondant or chocolate fondant? I know Duff uses a lot of it, but really, what for?


: Modeling Chocolate
  
MAKES ABOUT 1 CUP 
ingredients
8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips or I use chocolate wafers such as Wilton
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon light corn syrup

directions
Melt the chocolate in a metal bowl set over a pan of hot but not boiling water. Stir the chocolate with a wooden spoon until smooth, then stir in the corn syrup; the chocolate will stiffen almost immediately. Stir until completely combined. Transfer the chocolate to a sturdy plastic bag and refrigerate until firm. 
Work the Modeling Chocolate with your hands until pliable. Hand-shape the Modeling Chocolate into flowers, braids or ropes. Or pat it into a disk and roll it out to the desired thickness by hand or in a manual pasta machine and use it to make ribbons or for cutting out shapes.
