There is so much you can do with chocolate and I personally love working in it, especially sculpting. I make my own for modelling chocolate and put this tutorial up over a year ago if it’s of use to you Karen? I’ve had positive feedback on it and you can mix it with fondant too.
You can substitute liquid glucose for corn syrup or golden syrup. Yes you can colour it successfully as well, shown in the blog. Just use edible gels pastes. You can airbrush it too and have done so. With an iguana I did last year as one example .
Books are always a great investment!! I have a mini library of self teAching books. Have fun with it, it’s a fabulous medium to work with

You must never limit your challenges, instead you must challenge your limits
