Hi Jane! It should work to store the number topper in an airtight container in the freezer or refrigerator for a few weeks, or store it however you would normally store a chocolate bar!

Can I freeze the number topper after it’s complete for a couple of weeks?

Hi Sienna! The reason I chose Candy Melts for this tutorial is because they firm up enough to become a topper. You could try with buttercream and refrigerate it to make it firm, but since I’ve never used that medium before I’m not sure how it will turn out.

I love this topper and I want to make one for my son’s first birthday…. however, we have a lot of food allergies in our close family, specifically dairy in this case. Do you have alternative suggestions besides candy melts? I have a great dairy free buttercream frosting I use (family decided they like the dairy free one better than regular!)

Hi Allie! What kind of chocolate are you using? I’ve only tried this technique with Candy Melts and melted semi-sweet chocolate chips and didn’t get too much spreading on the edges. It sounds like what you’re using is a bit thin if it’s spreading far enough to ruin the shape.

I have tried a few times now to make these and I keep failing. The chocolate spreads as soon as I put the sprinkles on. I’ve tried waiting a little longer to let the chocolate firm up a bit, but I’m still having the same issue. Any thoughts?

The template can be any size! This one was about 3.5 inches tall and went on top of a triple layer 6 inch cake.

Hi Lindi! So excited for you to make this topper for your daughter! It will not melt with candles around it (unless the flames are touching it of course).
