How Do You Make Edible Poker Chips?

Are you looking to spice up your next game night with some edible poker chips? Look no further! Making your own edible poker chips is a fun and creative way to add some excitement to your game.

Before we get started, here are the ingredients you will need:

– 1 box of vanilla wafers
– 1 bag of white candy melts
– Food coloring (optional)
– Edible glitter (optional)
– Piping bags or plastic sandwich bags

Now let’s get into the process:

Step 1: Melt the Candy Melts
Start by melting the white candy melts according to the instructions on the package. You can either use a microwave or a double boiler to melt the candy. Make sure to stir the candy frequently so it doesn’t burn.

Step 2: Add Food Coloring (Optional)
If you want to add some color to your poker chips, now is the time. Add a few drops of food coloring to the melted candy and stir until it is fully incorporated.

PRO TIP:Making edible poker chips is easy and fun! Start by baking sugar cookies or using store bought cookie dough. Cut the dough into circles using a round cookie cutter. Poke a hole in the center of each cookie with a straw, to make them look like poker chips. Decorate the cookies with colored icing or sprinkles to simulate the colors of real chips. Finally, once they are cooled, you have your own homemade edible poker chips!

Step 3: Dip Vanilla Wafers into Melted Candy
Using a fork, dip each vanilla wafer into the melted candy until it is fully coated. Let any excess candy drip off before placing it on a sheet of wax paper.

Step 4: Add Edible Glitter (Optional)
If you want some extra sparkle, sprinkle some edible glitter onto each coated wafer while the candy is still wet.

Step 5: Let Chips Cool and Harden
Let the coated wafers cool and harden for at least an hour at room temperature. If you’re in a rush, you can also place them in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes.

Step 6: Create Designs with Piping Bags
Once your chips have hardened, it’s time to get creative. Using piping bags or plastic sandwich bags with small holes cut out of one corner, you can pipe designs onto each chip. This is where you can really customize your chips to fit the theme of your game night.

Step 7: Let Designs Harden
Let the designs on your chips cool and harden for about 10-15 minutes before handling them.

And there you have it – your very own edible poker chips! Not only are they a fun addition to any game night, but they’re also a tasty treat. So gather some friends, deal out the cards, and enjoy your delicious creations.
