Great for making Lego Lollipop shapes!

I used this to make a lego jam/chocolate brick mold. I took a regular Lego baseplate (10" x 10") and built a 3 brick high wall around it with 2 stud wide bricks. Then I lay rows of lego bricks, making sure there is a 1 pin gap between them. I poured the silicone using the entire silicone canister and made the perfect heavy duty mold for my stones. The best part is that after pouring the candies into the mold I can use the bottom plate to add indentations to the bottom of my bricks so you can…

Pros
  • Food Grade (See Technical Bulletin) - Excellent for making molds and baking sheets, ice cream molds, butter icing, chocolate, fondant and other products used in food production.
Cons
  • Expensive

So easy to use

I am very happy with this product. It worked like a dream. We didn't degas it as recommended, but after filling out the form we slammed it on the table like crazy. Seems to have worked fairly well as there were no bubbles or imperfections in the silicone mold. I sprayed the 3D printed plate with non-stick spray and it worked. It was a bit tricky to remove the silicone from the 3D mold but only because the way we designed the 3D mold didn't have a good place to grab and pull the silicone…

Pros
  • 40 A Shore
Cons
  • unreliable

Made an awesome cake pan using a mold from my 3D printer!

This material is excellent. My wife and I used it to give a friend a gift who wanted a 20-sided cube cake. The plan was to make a half silicone mold, bake two semi-circular cakes with the mold and assemble them with frosting. First I found an STL file with a 20-sided polygon (icosahedron) on the internet. Then I halved it with FreeCAD and added the box and then printed the half mold plus box out of PLA on my 3D printer (Prusa I3 MK3). I coated the plastic model with food safe mold release agent

Pros
  • Mix ratio: 100A:10B by weight (requires digital gram scale)
Cons
  • No longer white
