casting suggestions

Bcoyle,

Good Morning! If you want to cast chocolate, our first suggestion would be to do multiple molds, so you can dedicate one as a food grade mold and not mixing other casting mediums to pour in that mold. You can look at all of the Platts (10,25, and 40 durometers) for the FDA silicone. For soaps and candles, often it is the HS 1 or 2 that is used, along with the urethane resins, Alumilite.

More than likely you can make a two piece mold of your existing master. If you would like to send a picture to us we can look/see what would be a recommendation of silicone to use for your original after seeing undercuts and the configurations involved. You can then use these molds for the soap, candle, and other casting mediums.

Have a great weekend!

Regards,

Carol
