hey what’s up guys now in yesterday’s
video I pulled a request out of the
comments to make a silicone mold of a
real heart so I decided to give it a try
I made a wooden box mixed up a new batch
of silicone and poured it over top of a
pig’s heart and let it set overnight now
the rubber is firmed so let’s cut it
open clean up the mold and fill it up
with candy melts to make ourselves a
real chocolate heart for Valentine’s Day
[Music]
alright all the screws on the bottom
have been removed so we should be able
to just pry this thing up now but it
seems like silicone grabs on a lot
harder to wood than it does to acrylic
oh yes look at that there is the bottom
of the heart
you can actually see the hole where the
screw went in and held it in place that
is lovely alright let’s go ahead and get
this thing to rest the way out there we
go and that hopefully will be our little
rubber heart mold now before I cut into
this I have to think it through a little
bit how do we want to cut this because
it is going to leave seams and I don’t
want the seams to go down the front of
the heart I’d rather have them around
the back there’s so many parts to this
heart though and I’m under the
impression that silicone is probably
seeped inside it so we may have to do a
little bit of surgery once you start
digging down inside it always amazes me
how tough and rubbery this stuff is I
always like cutting at a crisscross
angle a jagged angle because that helps
the final mold come out a little bit
better
flip the cut off part of my globe we
have a little bit of silicone in here
that slipped into all those cracks and
crevices but we don’t really want those
in our finished product so I just sliced
them off
[Music]
there we go haha our heart is recovered
and it’s looking in really good shape
and I’m feeling pretty confident we got
ourselves a pretty good-looking mold
here so we’re going to take this thing
and save it for later and now we need to
do is clean and sterilize our mold and
prep it for use with chocolate look at
all the different flaps and folds that
are in there like just looking at it it
makes absolutely no sense whatsoever but
we do need to clean it because there’s
like little gross bits of tart so how
does it smell it does have a very faint
odor of formaldehyde so we’re gonna get
some hot soapy water and some bleach so
we can clean and sterilize this thing
and prep it for use with chocolate
[Music]
it’s already smelling pressure now we’re
gonna put on a little bit of bleach to
sterilize a little bit more give one
more wash and then rinse it off actually
be good to go there we go
clean sterilized just needs a good rinse
now and we should be good to pour our
chocolate
all right so update guys we have
successfully removed our heart and we’ve
cleaned and sanitized our rubber mold we
now have a heart mold ready for casting
chocolate so now we can throw all this
stuff in the microwave fill this up with
chocolate and then let it set in the
fridge for a few hours so we can open it
up and reveal the solid chocolate heart
that lies inside
[Music]
now one thing we have to keep in mind is
this heart is facing down and I don’t
want one front layer to all be the same
color so when we pour in the different
colors I think I’m going to drip it at
different angles and kind of smear it
around a little bit hopefully that’ll
give it a bit more marbled effect rather
than a stacked layered effect
[Music]
it already is starting to make a little
bit of a marbled effect in there I
figure to look close you can see this is
fun Valentine’s crafts king of random
style and of course if you’re not making
a mess you’re probably not having fun
and we are definitely having fun all
right let’s get this into the fridge and
give it a few hours to set now our
chocolate hearts been sitting in the
fridge for a little over 4 hours which
isn’t nearly as long as I would like to
keep it in there but we’re running out
of time so let’s go take it out open the
silicone mold and see what kind of
results we got ok so a moment of truth
guys let’s slowly and very carefully
peel this thing open so we can check out
the results of our labors look inside
there it kind of looks like one of those
magic mushrooms from Mario the red and
white splotches oh it’s like having your
first baby ha ha ha ha check that out oh
my goodness that looks disturbingly
amazing yeah actually that that really
does look I’m proud of this I’m proud of
this chocolate heart that looks crazy
so anatomically correct come check this
out we got the ventricles we got the
atriums we have the aorta everything’s
there even these little flappy muscle
things I don’t really know what purpose
those serve but they’re very delicate
and I imagine they taste fairly good
everything about this looks cool from
every different angle I’m loving it I’m
so glad we did this
I heart you Internet that looks amazing
I’m really really proud of this
chocolate heart and it actually looks
relatively edible as well I mean I
thought I was going to come out looking
kind of gross because you can actually
see the veins the division lines you can
see the little contours of the muscle
and even these like little ripples and
folds but because of the pink the white
and the Valentine’s colors I think it
actually looks relatively edible ok so
now the biggest question on my mind is
how much is this thing actually weigh we
got it set 2 grams and it comes out 1.1
kilograms that is a healthy sized heart
of course ironically enough this much
sugar isn’t good for your heart
the thing is absolutely massive so the
question now is how do these things
actually taste and we’ve got these weird
little muscle looking things on top of
the
dreams I’m not really sure what they’re
for or what they’re called but I think I
could just snap it right off there we go
that I look inside you can see there’s
different layers to the chocolate –
that’s kind of cool you played with my
heart man alright so how does this thing
taste this is the moment of truth
[Music]
this tastes like white chocolate that’s
really fun really fun really cool and
it’s got layers is it taste I like it
you get any heart flavor seeping through
their chocolate so I’m not really sure
who you give a heart like this to maybe
someone who’s aspiring to be a doctor or
a mortician I don’t know but there we go
a one-kilogram
anatomically correct chocolate heart for
Valentine’s Day so thanks to you Andrew
Jensen for your comments
you’re the crazy kid that made this
happen and I’m sending $25 your way and
to the rest of you thanks for joining me
for this experiment have a happy
Valentine’s Day and I’ll see you in the
next video talk to you then
oh it’s so cool it’s alive
