Can these be used with polymer clay and can you bake the silicone mold?

I'm sorry I didn't bake the mold and I didn't use it with polymer clay too. I just use with fondant and its doing great

Yes, Just thaw a little or use saran wrap. Just be careful not to break the mold.

I don't own one of these, but have owned silicone bakeware in the past, and have had mixed results with it. Silicone is a good insulator of heat, and so you'll likely need to increase the recipe temperature slightly (if it's still in the tolerable range of the material, which I believe is 450 for silicone bakeware, but don't quote me on that.) When you bake with it, like any silicone item, you'll want to place it on a cookie sheet, and use plenty of Baker's Joy or Pam with flour, or grease and flour, as this is NOT non stick by any means. Hope this helps!

Im so sorry I use mine for soap mold vs baking. I didn't keep the instructions that came with it but im almost positive it came with instruction let gave you that type information. I do however have another company manual to a silicone mold very similar & they state the mold will start to damage at 446 f-230 c. I have no idea if this is of any help but I thought id do my best to answer your question.

Yes they are made of silicone and can be used for pretty much anything. The bricks will make a good size for jello but the minifiguers will be fairly small.

I don't know - I did not use with a mold. I used them alone and they worked beautifully!

No, These will not melt they are Bamboo (wood) i think they are better than silicone personally, however i treated them before using with olive oil .

Yes, but if it's their first time using polymer clay, I would suggest trying the Sculpey III variety. It's easier to mold and comes in smaller/cheaper packages, and multiple colors.

I did more research. The silicone is safe to 400 degrees and can be used for soaps, candles etc. but: 1. The mold is very shallow so soaps would be very fragile 2. Molds used for foods should NOT be used for anything else. So if you want a soap rose a specialty soap mold would likely give a better result. Hope this helps.

I use mine for soap making and have found the silicone molds extremely easy to use. hope this helps! :-)

You probably don't want to use this for mold making as it is not flexible. I'd suggest a casting silicon from smooth on.

it heats very evenly and the temperature seems to stay consistent but I have not used it to bake polymer clay. I believe it would work great for it though.

Sorry I am using mine for polymer clays, I have not noticed the smell you speak of but also probably not using the higher temps needed for baking.

These are hard candies- you could glue to clay, but would be time consuming. They won't melt.

Yes, these are tiny cube-shaped molds. I use mine for hard candies, which is much harder to work with than clay. I push my candies out from the back side...it takes a few minutes, but it works well. Since this is silicon and has no air drying holes, etc., it could take awhile for clay to harden in it, but I see no reason why this wouldn't work. Will pass this idea on to my daughter as she loves beads/bead working. Good Luck!

I think you might be able to- as long as you are only trying to use half the mold (my molds are in the garage somewhere right now)- but I think they are dimensional on both sides, and they are not water tight (egg liquid would leak out- so I'd chill them in a bowl).
