Heat at 50% power for another 30 seconds. Stir again. Heat at 50% power in 15-second intervals, and stir until completely smooth. Do not overheat.
- Using a spoon, slowly pour candy melts into mold. Fill each only halfway. Gently tap mold onto countertop to remove air bubbles.
- Crush small candy hearts with a small spoon. Sprinkle crushed candy hearts into each mold. Cover with candy melts (to the top of the mold).
- Place mold in the freezer for 30 minutes.
- Knead fondant (both red and white), roll into ball, and flatten with fondant roller. Using fondant knife, cut out the following letters: L, O, V, E, (one set in red & one set in white). Tip: You can use a small frosting tip to cut out the O.
- Remove mold from freezer.
- Add a tiny amount of candy melts to the back of each letter and gently press each letter onto candies.
- Add a small amount of candy melts to the top of the remaining three candies, and sprinkle crushed candy hearts.
- Place all candies in freezer for 15 minutes.
