We did this as an Alumnae Association project every year (making candy). You buy the chocolate disks in the flavors & colors you want, microwave them, pour the chocolate into the mold, let it cool, and pop them out. VERY easy! Figure on about 2-3 minutes to melt the chocolate (it's actually a shorter time, but you do keep checking it), another 5 minutes to fill the mold, but depending on the mold, you could wait up to a half hour for them to cool.
As I said, the one problem is if you decide to wash the bowl and there's still some water in it - messes up the chocolate. But now, there's even little cardboard boxes in which you can melt the chocolate, so you don't have that problem. Lately, I've been melting the chocolate in the decorator bottles, but that's because I've been using it to decorate cookies. That takes a bit more effort, but it's worth it.
I still don't know where they found the green lollipop sticks, though. I imagine that there's a type of tint or spray that doesn't mess up your hands but is still edible, though.
