What Size Mold for Hot Chocolate Bombs

When determining the size mold for your Hot Chocolate Bombs, you need to measure the cups you will be using. To be safe, you want to keep your silicon mold between 2 and 2.5 inches in diameter.  You can go smaller or larger, but too small limits the goodies you can put inside and too large means the cocoa bomb will not fit in your mug. The average 6 cavity Hot Cocoa Mold is about 2 inches.
