Tape all four corners of your image onto your work area. Make sure the surfaces is free of any little particles that may make the surface bumpy and difficult to work with.
Then tape the wax paper over your image to prevent it from moving around.

Step 3: Melt the Chocolate
Melt your white chocolate first. To melt it you will need to heat it up on the microwave for about 40 seconds to a minute. Try not to overheat it as it might burn.
I decided to make the white chocolate represent the black areas of my image (the contours) because they're a lot less than the white areas, meaning that it would take less chocolate. Since white chocolate tends to be a lot sweeter than dark chocolate or milk chocolate this is an effective way of using less of it.

Step 4: Painting With Chocolate
Using your clean brush paint the black areas of your image with white chocolate.
Then wait for the white areas entirely to cool before proceeding to the next steps.

Repeat Step 4-5
Use dark or milk chocolate instead.
