    To make molded lollipop flowers; Melt candy disks (easily done with disks in a bowl in the microwave); pour melted candy into dry lollipop molds; tap molds gently to remove air bubbles.
    Lay a stick in each mold and give the stick a half twist to make sure it is fully covered with candy.
    Refrigerate filled molds until bottoms of molds appear frosty or until candy is firm.
    Remove candy by inverting molds and tapping gently.
    Trim excess coating from molded candy with a sharp knife.
