Is there an easy way to make a custom mold for gummy candy?

Make the shape of your gummy out of a product called, Amazing Mold Putty. Once you have crafted what the shape of your gummy candy will be – to make a mold of it, you can press it into a block of a product called, Sculpey. Follow directions on how to harden the Sculpey mold. Once that is done – you can pour the gummy candy into that mold & voila! You have a custom made gummy candy.

Just thought I would throw this out there, but I just checked the Sculpey website to see what it says about making things that will hold food, and this is it:

• Do not make items which will be used to hold or to serve food or beverages or for smoking materials.

Not sure to what extent that warning goes. For if you Google, sculpey & food mold – you get many, many hits. Not to say that, just because it is found on the internet…it must be true/safe. I think with Sculpey, it is best to cover their asses & tell people not to put food in it. It is a baked clay. I have coffee mugs I have made out of baked clay. I haven’t died yet.

Thanks, all! If I can’t make it out of Sculpey, is there another product that can be used?

Knead-a-Mold is a food safe product that can withstand temperatures of a constant 300F or 600F intermittently. It is commonly used as a candy mold. Best of luck to you & your suspicious candy making plans. :)

That’s great! Thanks!
