I first came across DIYs using diffraction grating film on TikTok. This included "magic" resin molds which create pieces with iridescence that don't require glitter or paint. Then I saw several videos on KZbin featuring holographic chocolate. So I decided to test out everything that can be poured into a mold in liquid form. The results were quite hit and miss but I did get a few very aesthetic pieces out of it. I'm surprised there aren't more commercially available products that use this effect, or people who sell magic molds. From my research, there are only a few very small indie sellers who offer diffraction resin molds. I'd love to try making my own molds for an upcoming video so there isn't an issue of the diffraction film getting stuck.

I remember seeing Cristine and Ben from simplynailogical do this! From what I remember, whenever they tried to peel the film and chocolate apart, it would not produce the shiny holographic effect but if the chocolate and the film started to separate by itself and formed a pocket of air between the film and chocolate, by gently pushing around the air pocket to release the chocolate and film, it created a super shiny holographic effect! My theory is that by peeling apart the film and chocolate, it may be too harsh and may not transfer the texture perfectly so when it is done more gently, the texture is transferred better

[@boba_tea1156]

A Simply fan! Heyyy :]

[@maqaroon]

Yep I watched that video and it was so confusing 😂! The result was amazing but I didn't get how the "bubble" was able to spread and move the holo around 🤣

[@raverie1225]

omg a simply fan and an army??

[@window2myworld765]

armyyyy :D

[@ImLilyBlue]

holo there

[@ch0colatec0ff33]

The KZbinr Ann Reardon (How to cook that) Was the one who was able to figure out you could make chocolate holo, and she explains it very well!

[@xx_skyplayzroblox_xx3074]

Yeah I was a bout to comment that

[@auua1001]

Nope, it was Applied Science who did it first. I love Ann but she didn't invent it.

[@kandy1643]

It actually has been a known effect. It’s a structure related to opal

[@juicy_melon2231]

I don't think that she was the one that invented chocolate holo

[@ARTLECCHINO12]

i was going to comment something similar to that

[@aiaikawa4012]

Making a silicone mold out of the foil will work, the silicone picks up the texture perfectly and can easily transfer it to other materials. Ive seen other youtubers (evan and katelyn) do it before

[@TheNarukissosu]

I love it when influencers show us their mistakes too Makes me feel less like an idiot when my crafts don't turn out like they should Or when I'm just clumsy like today, where I spilt wax all over my kitchen while making candles

[@AlottaBoulchit]

4:53 omg the Little Tiny Piece of chocolate that YEETED across the table when you broke the second chunk in half 🤣

[@luciel0309]

the way to use this method is to use the film to create the texture in a silicone mold, as in transferring it to the silicone. that way you can transfer it to other things without the risk of the film sticking. i think evan and katelyn used that method

[@artsyfartsybart1580]

I’ve been watching your channel for about four years on and off, your videos gave me a really good outlook on creating, you never made it look effortless, you’ve always shown when something didn’t work out and how you kept trying. The calm colorful visuals and your soothing voice overs got me through a really hard time in my childhood, because of you I learned so much you’ve really impacted my life. Thank you so much Joanna 💚💚

[@knot.offended44]

This reminds of the does anything transfer debate between Ben and Cristine still lol

[@anaghanair6431]

I've been watching you for so many years. Your videos were literally what my school days were made up of...I find it so amusing that you still have such unique video ideas and such great content !!! Thanks for all of your videos and keep up the great work 💕💕

[@maqaroon]

Thank you!! 🥰 Making YT vids is really my passion and I never seem to run out of ideas 😂

[@haseabolt]

There are tiny lines on the paper that are 2 microns apart. We can't see anything less than 35 microns. I learned this from Ann Reardon's video about the holographic chocolate.

[@samanthaweber2195]

Ok I see a 3 way collab here… SimplyNailogical (Cristine) How To Cook That (Ann Reardon) Maqaroon (Joanna)

[@fletcherandjunk2246]

Plus Evan and Katelyn

[@toxictraitor4512]

I wonder if air dry clay could pick up the effect? Maybe it is too textured to do it properly...

[@70sman]

Probably not, but other kinds of clay like polymer clay or resin clay might.

[@Bubblegumsh1]

I was wondering too

[@larainejohnson8105]

I’ve never heard someone other than a Glass artist use the word dichroic, this is beautiful. Thank you so much.

[@rosey5743]

you can actually buy molds that have diffraction grating already on them!! theyre mostly used for resin and they look really beautiful :)

[@miikkomiikko]

Yes!! Another amazing video🐨💖 Also as a culinary student I can tell you that chocolate tempering is kind of tricky so don't get discouraged if you fail the first time💖💖

[@maqaroon]

Thank you! Yes, I didn't have a thermometer or stove in my office so I couldn't try real tempering, though I wasn't 100% confident that would work anyway 😅. The candy melt was a cheat option in case both chocolates didn't temper 😝

[@Silly_beastie_neku]

@@maqaroon always gotta have the back up this turned out beautiful and funny thing u said holographic chocolate so i looked it up and watched the action lab short before coming back to ur video and seeing that u watched it 😆

[@SimBits]

You're looking tan, I hope you're enjoying the sun this summer! Great video as always! 🖤

[@maqaroon]

Hehe thanks!! Yes been spending a lot of time outdoors, especially running around after a toddler 😂

[@IunaIia]

Quite amazing how everyone seems to think Ann Reardon created holo chocolate, ignoring the fact that there's multiple videos from others creators out months before hers. I personally learned about it from Gizmodo and then seen Applied Science and the Action Lab's videos on it prior to the HTCT release.

[@IunaIia]

Also cringe are ppl who thought Simplynailogical did it first. Literally in the first minute of her video, Ben acknowledges Food/Science KZbin has done it already months prior.

[@MarraNarra]

Definitely check out Ann From how to cook that, I believe she was one the first, if not, the very first to create the method for making Holo chocolate. I wish she got more credit for her video

[@IunaIia]

But Annwasn't the first one to create holo chocolate. Applied Science and the Action Lab both published videos months before Ann and ETH Zurich had an article back in 2019 about it.

When I saw her video in notifications I came faster then Joanna can say "Hi everyone and welcome back to maqaroon".

[@Kristine_202]

I feel like those candy melts burn really easily. Plus they don't taste that great. It's a cool concept, but I'd rather just deal with chocolate. :)

[@sekogasisegde]

I love how calming and yet entertaining her videos are!!

[@Whateverhasbeenmynameforyears]

I always tell my students you did not fail if it was an experiment because the point of an experiment is to get information which you did.

[@ShiaraMoon]

FYI, Evan and Katelyn did experiments with resin and defraction film. They made a silicon mold of the defraction film and successfully created holographic resin.

[@adqueen2548]

Hi! Maybe try just putting chocolate and few drops of oil (literally any oil will do) in microwave and just heat it till it melts. I cannot temper it but this is a great way to melt it and to have it hardened

[@PrincessSixThirteen]

The chocolate needs to be tempered in order to pick up the holographic effect.

[@KaruuxiOldAcc]

this entire video i was just like "damn i wanna eat that chocolate"

Your voice is so calming

[@Janice_Lo]

I love how your voice is so smooth

[@_.-._.-.]

Evan and Katelyn did a video on making holo resin :) Also I think (specifically for resin) a pressure pot or vaccum chamber would increase the holo effect. There may be small amounts of air trapped in the ridges on the film which makes the effect less visible on some surfaces

[@dustercat21]

I saw a resin one done by a youtuber. They made a silicon mould with the hologram paper and then put the resin in the mould.

[@kae...]

Yayyayy you posted! So happy now

[@KR.R4921]

Could you pls make a DIY fidgets vid?❤ You have the best DIY videos

[@fletcherandjunk2246]

Evan and Katelyn actually figured out how to get this to work with resin by creating their own silicone mold of the plastic! I suggest watching their video if you want to attempt to make a squishy with this look! :)

[@raeh5158]

Holographic effect turns out best under sunlight or flash! Ring lights/diffused lighting dulls the holo a lot -a simply nailogical fan

[@Tj_Smeejay]

You can make silicone molds to use for the resin and gels, there are resin artists on instagram who have made their own holographic molds. It works great for them, at least with resin.

[@Star77760]

Her:Exciting experiments Me: I will never do it

[@Dreaming_Blue777]

Even and Katlyn did this and they did a few tests for he resin it's so cool

[@MinisDunyasi5]

Loved the video! 💖 And your knife also looks holographic

[@orchdork775]

Would really love to see you revisit this!!

[@thebrokenmandolin9046]

And all you need to do in order to make holographic resin is make a new custom mold utilizing the film and make a mold of the film and them you should be able to cast whatever you'd like although you'll have to be super careful otherwise you'll damage to effect of the holo if your not careful with it while making the mold

[@lachauntiswashington231]

That's really cool 👍👍

[@misstricksmix]

I really like your videos

[@bobateaisabella6580]

I love your videos ❤️❤️💕

[@blargblossom]

Maybe someome has already sad that but you can make a mold that has the texture of the transfer film and then anything with made with that mold will also produce the holo refraction. That would work better with resin because there would be no foil to get stuck. Also, the problem with your chocolates is probably because you didn't temper them. Candy melts (and stuff called compound chocolate) are made for melting down and resolidifying. Regular chocolate will not resolidify nicely if you don't temper it. It'll be grainy and dull like the milk chocolate you used.

[@lorisalomons8882]

Use the diffraction sheet to make silicone moods and then try again :) hope I get to see you try again I love this

[@Iheartdeft0nes]

I recently read the book telling tales as Sonia long came to my school and I loved your section!!’

[@thebestauthor8212]

Moral of the story: You can’t make anything holographic except for chocolate.

Still looking forward to the follow up!

i wonder if it would work with polymer clay!

[@lucosmetics6049]

Hi! I’m new to this channel, and I’m loving it! Subbed ❤️❤️❤️

[@37corpses]

I may be a bit late, but have you considered attempting to make a mould with the foil? You could paste the foil to the apoxy block you made and cast it with silicone and see if it would work

[@ravemikuhatsune6251]

The youtubers Evan and Katlyen were able to use the diffraction paper to make a mold and then turned resin into the effect.

[@vibha_m0309]

Can you please try the "secret in funkpop" pls

[@purplegolden9056]

This is so cool!

[@fairycorgi1127]

Could you try making squishys with candle jelly?

[@TheLonesomeDarkness]

You should check out EvanAndKatelyn! They made a silicone mold with the diffraction grating film and made Holo resin with it!

[@Donteatacowman]

Oh!! can you make some kind of mold from the plastic, then use the squishy gel with the mold? Siilicon may not pick up the tiny details but maybe other options could exist. Oop - you suggested it as I was typing! Anyway, I'd like to see you test it with different possible mold materials if possible.

[@Rifa-l2e]

how all my favourite youtubers have tried this trend! First it was How to cook that ,action lad ,simply nailogical and now you!!!

[@Tenko72]

All of these look edible.

[@potatopotato4920]

If this helps, Evan and Katelyn made a video doing it with resin. They made a mold of the refraction grating instead of making the resin with the refraction grating in the same mold... If that makes sense

[@katnip266]

I wonder if the ridges from the plastic gripped onto the gels .. like Velcro or something

[@ChiChanSpeedpaint]

You can make a silicone mold with the foil and then you can make rainbow epoxy pieces 😌

[@fnafspaghetti3883]

Your voice is so soothing I love it

[@mihaelfajt293]

chocolate tempering is really difficult, you need to hit very specific temperatures in order to make it work

[@kaylasteines9007]

I wonder if the chocolate would work if you mixed it with coconut oil🤔. Coconut oil makes chocolate really smooth and pourable. I don't know if this would actually work better or not, but I know it at least makes chocolate easier to use!

[@molly4243]

you should try this again but instead make silicone molds with the plastic like how even and Kaitlyn did it

[@Donteatacowman]

Oh! There are comments open on this! I was wondering if something had happened for you with Sophie & Toffee, because I didn't think you'd resort to Hitohada gel anymore! I was like, is Joanna okay?!

[@Donteatacowman]

By the way, how did you clean up the uncured gel? I have some UV activated gel but I am reluctant to use it because I can't exactly clean off a mold/counter/etc and wash it down the sink.

[@maqaroon]

Haha the Squishy Gel was actually out of stock for a while and I was down to my last 2 bottles so I had to start using my stash of Hitohada Gel. However I noticed that the newer batches of Hitohada Gel tend to cure more reliably than the old ones I tested in my videos from 2017. I use a multi-purpose gall soap cleaner and wipe everything up with paper towels. Then I throw the towels in the bin which is the best way to dispose of DIY waste.

[@labella9291]

The chocolate bars you used were probably already tempered

[@AutumnFictions]

I'm a bit late, but if you do intend on trying these again, here are a couple of tutorials that might help you in your endeavors. The first is from How To Cook That and goes over the details of working with chocolate and what tempering actually is, explained in a friendly manner that is easy to understand. Also explaining a few methods for tempering, one quite simple and similar to what you used, but more specific. The second video is from Evan And Katelyn and goes over their attempts, and successes, in making holographic resin, and the molds they used to make them.
