Gradually release the air. Be careful not to release the air too quickly or the bowls may break. Carefully peel the deflated balloons from the chocolate bowls. Patch any holes with the remaining chocolate if needed. Return the chocolate bowls to the refrigerator.Using a hand mixer, blender, or food processor, blend tofu until smooth.
