How to make COCOA BEETLES from Coraline! Feast of Fiction S4 Ep25 | Feast of Fiction

Learn how to make these delightfully creepy COCOA BEETLES from the movie Coraline!
Ingredients:
1 pack (12 oz.) light cocoa candy melts
1 pack (12 oz.) dark cocoa candy melts
1/2 cup Cocoa krispies
Gold luster dust
Strawberry Pop rocks (optional)
Tools:
Oval or egg shaped chocolate molds
Paintbrush
Piping bag and tip
Wax/Parchment paper
Melt your light cocoa candy melts in your microwave or over a water bath. If melting in the microwave, heat in 15-20 second intervals and stir the chocolate in between to prevent burning. Once they're melted, fill your candy egg molds halfway. Then add a layer of Cocoa Krispies followed by an optional layer of Strawberry Pop Rocks. If you'd rather have some other kind of flavor here, feel free to improvise and experiment! Just make sure whatever you put in isn't too large or bulky so you can maintain the egg shape of the mold. Once you've placed your crunchy interior in the chocolate mold, cover it up with another layer of your melted chocolate. Even it out by tapping the mold on the table a few times, then throw it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes until it is frozen solid.
Once your chocolate eggs have hardened, pop them out of the mold and trim any excess chocolate from the edges. Use tin foil to act as a painter's tape and cover the top of "head" of your egg shape. Melt your dark cocoa candy melts and use a paintbrush to add a new layer onto your cocoa beetles. This will create the 'shell' and 'wings' of the beetle. Once that layer has dried, take another paintbrush and dip it in Gold Luster Dust and carefully draw on the T shape that runs across and down the beetles back. Use a paintbrush dipped in water afterwards to clean up any messy lines.
The last part of these beetles are the legs and antennae. Put your melted dark cocoa candy melts into a piping bag and pipe out the legs and antennae on parchment paper. The antennae will look like comma shapes and the legs are straight lines. Let these dry and carefully remove them from the parchment paper.
To place the legs on the beetles, flip them upside down and add little dabs of melted chocolate from your piping bag to act as glue. Add two dabs to the top of the beetles head for the antennae, then three dabs on each side of the body for the legs. Once you've carefully placed them on, go over the limbs with another layer of chocolate from the piping bag to give it a little more sturdiness.
Let these dry and very carefully flip them right side up and make any final adjustments before presenting them! We used golden cupcake holders and a shoebox lined with golden paper. Voila! You've made some delicious and crunchy COCOA BEETLES from Coraline!

[@Sophiezlife]

for guts I would totally put nutella or soft caramel in the middle :3

[@missmingles]

Karenzlife Thats what I was thinking! The gooey guts were the most of my hype when I started watching! Oh well.

[@apricotsapricots472]

Nutella with the rice krispy stuff

[@mushroomtiddies9003]

I know I'm 4 years behind schedule and all, but I love your comment because every time I watched it, I would always imagine them having a hazelnut centre.

[@A.T.R.21]

I would do some type of milk chocolate muse with rice krispies for the guts.

[@MK-gs6uw]

Can you add like macadamia nuts

[@bannock4957]

You guys should've added Carmel for the Gooey Effect. But that would probably be really complicated tho XD

[@auntiesonya7648]

Bannock49 Omg I'm gonna do that it's a great idea! 👍

[@likelylovegacha]

Oh yeah

[@waywardjellyfish8353]

i would have went with a hazelnut creme filling tbh

[@tommytaylor2335]

🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌.

[@VirusX728]

I had that idea as well, lol. The hazelnut creme filling idea someone mentioned also sound good.

[@thefvguy5648]

[@xmvriv]

I love that movie! Great recipe!

[@stitch4713]

yes

[@alinelaura7714]

In my opion, you should have added some peanut butter inside because when the other mother bites it, some pb olored cream comes out. Caramel or butterscotch would also work, and would taste great with the crispies!

[@fluffocatfox5471]

Aline Laura thats real smart I was thinking of making them so I will be using your PB step

[@gerardcunningham8043]

Aline Laura yo

[@daringdg4008]

[@KittyGamerCat]

I loved this one--you guys did a great job of giving side hints and tips. it is SO NICE when you do that and makes it way easier to recreate the recipe. Thank you for doing the show!

[@FeastOfFiction]

+Kitty Gamer Cat thanks!! Coraline gave us great inspiration - it's the perfect combination of crafty and tasty!

[@LoreCatan]

+Feast Of Fiction when did you 2 see coraline the first time? also can you do something maybe from the red ball 1,2,3 or 4 (it's a game) they didn't have food in that game but i'm sure you can make the ball or maybe the crown from the second game

[@sarahagan8595]

+Justin Millus yes it was

[@trufflesth]

i was expecting it to be like a chocolate shell and when you break it there would be coffee/chocolate marshmallow fluff

[@trevorminton6084]

I really would have liked to see them put a caramel filling and put the pecans and pop rocks in that.

[@iampinball3669]

You can do that though, you is you fight the food

[@trevorminton6084]

It's a little difficult to cook anything I want where I live. We never have all the ingredients for a big recipe together at once.

[@HJF]

Love this! Keep it coming. :D

[@Maki-vj4sv]

Can you do something from Undertale? Maybe do Toriel's Butterscotch - Cinnamon Pie or Papyrus' Spaghetti or even some Nice Cream, anything really. xD

[@tinkily23]

But I mostly want the pie recipe.

[@exp_logan179]

I'm just going through ideas for costumes with my best friend (we want to go as matching stuff, like cookies and milk, or Star Butterfly and Marco Diez) in the middle of the summer because we want to make our costumes ourselves and it always takes him forever to settle on a theme even when he's just buying it from a store. Whatever we pick, it's gonna be fluffing amazing

[@ZombieMonkey7]

Hey maybe you guys should do Undertale's Butterscotch Pie. I know Asgore's been looking for the recipe

[@Sgt_Viper000]

Super Spicy Curry from Kirby.

[@TheCreeperCyborg]

[@MarissaOfUnderground]

This looks like it would be a lot of fun to make!! I love chocolate truffles, and I'd probably get creative and put all kinds of fillings in these. Raspberry's my favorite. Gotta have something in for a crunch, hm...peanuts? I'd totally try this filling though. It sounds yummy. And a perfect treat for Halloween! Thanks for this video! Ha, knew I'd see tons of Undertale requests for the future. Left mine in the Discussion section of your channel rather than here, since I'd prefer to talk about what was made in this video. :)
