Based on the available reference, you can stick chocolate balls together by slightly melting the edges of the chocolate and then pressing them together until they adhere.
Here's a breakdown of the process implied from the reference:
- Create Individual Chocolate Balls: You first need to have individual chocolate balls prepared. This likely involves melting chocolate, shaping it (potentially using molds), and letting it set.
- Slightly Melt the Edges: The key is to gently melt the edges of the chocolate balls that will be in contact with each other. This can be achieved by:
- Using a warm surface: Briefly touching the edge of the chocolate ball to a warm plate or pan.
- Applying slight heat: Using a heat gun or a hair dryer on a low setting, very briefly, to soften the edge. Be extremely careful not to melt the chocolate too much.
- Adhere the Balls: Immediately press the softened edges of the chocolate balls together. Hold them gently but firmly until the chocolate re-solidifies and the balls are joined.
- Ensure Complete Drying: Allow the joined chocolate balls to sit completely undisturbed in a cool, dry place until the chocolate is fully set. This ensures a strong bond.
The reference specifically mentions creating a "large chocolate ball" by joining "slightly smaller balls," suggesting that this method is suitable for building larger chocolate structures.
