John Adams Chocolate Lolly Maker | Melt, Mould & Wrap Your Own Chocolate Lollies | Choose From 4 Designs | Food Craft Treats | Age 6+ | Kids Gift Idea For Birthday & Christmas | Chocolate Not Included

Purchased for use by a 4 & 5 year old, who had lots of fun with it but this isn't a toy that the kids can just be left to get on with. It also seems to encourage making 2 coins at a time which would make this a very tedious experience & I presume this is why it has such poor reviews generally. I took the attitude of in for a penny in for a pound and purchased a refil kit along with the toy which gave me extra moulds, foil etc so could make 8 coins in 1 go. With a bit of planning the kids melted the chocolate before lunch and the coins set in the freezer whilst we ate lunch, so we didn't have to wait around. After lunch we wrapped them and embossed them. Both children thoroughly enjoyed this and were very proud of their designs. This toy takes adult input to keep them on track (and avoid everything being chocolate coated) but both kids once shown were perfectly capable of making a coin. The cutter will work with kitchen foil so when you run out of golden foil, silver coins can still be made. Fun bits: melting the chocolate, spooning it into the moulds, putting the tops on, taking them apart once set & embossing. Harder bit, cutting the foil (unless you get the right pressure it either doesn't cut or tears), keeping the foil flat and central when you start wrapping, if you get it wrong it doesn't seal properly, creases & sticks. Value for money: Wasn't bad for price but glad I purchased the refill pack so I could make 8 at a time, I would have found making a smaller number too labour intensive. I also purchased the chocolate buttons that go with this which was a mistake as they were sweet & v.expensive for what I got, i'd recommend using any supermarket ones instead. Overall: Good fun - kids loved it - works well if you like cooking, experimenting with chocolate and are willing to help the the kids with it. If you accept that you will never get a gormet tasting coin from a melted & frozen chocolate button, but you will get a personalised one ... it's a winner.

Value for money, nephew had great fun using it

I know - I am a man and we don't read instructions or anything like that at all. So this review is only for men like me. If you are a biologically superior being, feel free to scoff and then get back to parking badly. For £15, this is over priced tat. You don't get any chocolate with it and the melting pot thing, is poor. Basically, this is £15 for 4 moulds and some lolly wrappers. If this had been £6.99, I would give it 5 stars as it comes in a nice box and the moulds are re-usable. Shame on me for not reading the contents properly in the first place and shame on the Chinese for allowing their factories to make this crud. Having said that, my daughter loved it and so I am giving it 4 stars for her happiness, -1 star for the fact I had to go and spend more money on chocolate. Very clever packaging as well, massive box for about 150g of stuff. If you have got this far down the review without shaking your head, you are like me - so here is some advice : Do what women do and read the box carefully in the first place. That way, you won't feel like such a duffer on Easter Sunday. Next year, I am not going to undertake this complicated process again and will leave it to a more competent individual. (Who can't park).

Very nice!

Great fun item

My little one hasn’t used this a lot yet. It does feel like it might not be robust enough to last too many uses. But I must say, I hope it last a while, because my little one loved it!! We followed all the instructions and it all went really REALLY well (which I didn’t expect). I thought it was going to produce low quality chocolate coins, but quite contrary, the coins came out looking really good and also tasted great (of course we bought the chocolate we like, ha! So, No surprise there). But I do recommend this item. I hope we can get many uses out of it. I must say, however, they really should include more golden wrapping paper. They include incredibly low amount of this (only enough to wrap 8, 9 coins really).
