Hi ...love this mold for making my soaps.....how many oz is each mold? I also want to order the oval mold.

Well, ounces can be either weight or volume. I use the metric system for soapmaking (even in the US - it's tons easier!) and measured each cavity at 75mL - I think that's between 2 and 3 ounces by volume. My digital scale toggles between units of measure so I tossed a bar on it to weigh and it came out at 2 ounces exactly (though that was a hot process bar so the corners of the mold may not have been full). For volume reference, I have normal human hands and a bar fits almost exactly in my palm. I have not tried the oval mold, but I imagine it's much the same quality. Obviously, the sizes will be different between the two styles of mold. Well, ounces can be either weight or volume.

The molds are a little over 3oz each. It also depends on what you're adding to the soap, such as flower petals or oatmeal.

This one sounds like it is 2 of the 32 ounce bottles. I've gotten several sizes. Now I'm on to getting the gallon size and refill smaller bottles to save the most money. I love their peppermint castille soap!

Just measure the individual ones on/in mold....that should help....oh! I see previous comment, now, oops! Okay...just measured my mold? The smallest is about 2 1/2 inches to 3 1/2 inches for longest....they all fit directly in mold? But, if you make all the tools? There will be 'over-spill.'

With this stuff it's fairly easy. Any melt and pour soap base can be heated in the microwave (only heat it a few seconds at a time until you know how your microwave will respond to it) or on the stove in a double boiler (or heat-safe glass container suspended in boiling water). I have my own Pyrex measuring cup dedicated to melting down soap and wax. That way you don't accidentally use it for cooking and you can keep track of how much you have in the cup easily. After that, find a silicone mold you like and you're off and running. I usually fill my new molds with water and then pour that water into my measuring cup so I know how many milliliters of soap I need to fill the mold, then write that on the side of the mold. When I want to make soap with that mold I see how much soap base i need, then slowly melt that much in the microwave. For mine, I found 30 second intervals work best. Between heatings I usually stir the melted soap to check for lumps. Once it is lump free you can add sent and colors as you want but I just pour it into the mold and allow it to cool. This usually takes a few hour.

It would make tiny pieces of soap. But I don't see why you couldn't use it for that. I think any Silicone Mold can be used for Soaps. I use it to make Embellishments for my cards.

What is glue paste used for? I bought this mold to use for soap. I've used both melt and pour and hot process soap in it. The melt and pour soap is very liquidy and hot. Hot process is thicker and not as hot. The mold is extremely flexible and the soaps popped right out. Maybe some of these experiences will help you. Sorry I can't offer more. Good luck!

I think about a quart. I cut it up and melted it in a quart sized mason jar in a boiling pot of water. I didn't really pay attention to how much liquid it made, but I think I filled the jar twice and when melted was half a jar. This soap melts pretty quickly and is easy to work with.

I use this mold for making soap, so I'm not a good one to answer this question.

That is a good question and I do not know the answer. Maybe you should contact the seller who made this soap and ask them. Best wishes.

Had to go check my stash -- Yes, each bar is 4.5 oz. And for me, they have been a life-saver since most soaps are NOT my friend. Hope this helps.

Hey PT, I bought these diamond molds specifically for making truffles. This mold is perfect. The size is good and my truffles looked store bought. They have always tasted good but this is the first time they have looked so good. Let me know how it turns out. Teresa

I'm not sure how many pieces-I think there were 6. I melted all 6 down into one piece. I make pendants out of the mold-then rewarm it to make a different pendent mold.The one piece of Instant Mold is about 1/2 inch thick,1 3/4 inch wide and 2 1/2 inch long.(this is all 6 melted down together) I hope this information helps.

The official Nordicware site says that this mold has a 10 cup capacity. There's also contact info on that site, which would allow you to ask them anything you like about using the pan. I've never actually called them, but I'm sure they'd be helpful!

Hi Roseanne,Freshware mold # CB105RD - 12 cavity is a great tapered cavity soap mold. Each measures 2 3/4 L X 1 3/4W X 7/8 DP to give a nice 1.8 oz bar.Phil

I originally purchased these for soap molds, but they would also be great for panna cotta. They would remove easily from the silicone mold and the shape is perfect.

ItGo will make approx. 6-2" plus several smaller. It all depends on the size of your molds. It works really neat. However, I would definitely advise using flexible molds or if you don't, it is very hard to get out. I even tried veg. oil in the mold and was unhappy as it left a stain on the soap.Godd luck.
