wet pallet - using Ferrero rocher container

This is how to make a wet pallet using a Ferrero Rocher chocolate plastic box.
This is not my idea - There are a number of blogs that show this method

You will need:
Ferrero Rocher Chocolate box - square edges are best
Sponge
Kitchen Cloth
Baking Paper
Water

Eat Chocolates
The plastic chocolate holder insert can be used as a paint pallet
 
Cover base with sponge
Best to buy one large sponge and cut to size

Cut cloth to size
The cloth will help reduce air bubbles between sponge and baking paper
The air bubbles stop the water moving from sponge to paint
 
Place on top of sponge


Cut baking paper to size
 
Wet sponge and cloth with water - not too wet
Place baking paper on top of cloth
