Cut the silicone molds so that each sphere mold is by itself as shown here. I did this because I felt it was easier to control the mold when working with the melted chocolate.
Use a paper towel or clean kitchen towel and wipe the inside of the silicone molds. This will allow your chocolate mold to have a shiny coat on it.
Remove about 16-20 size matching pieces of the melting wafers and set aside.
