I want to use these as chocolate molds slice off the top and put candy brains in them. Do you think they would work for this use?

Hi, that is such a great idea. I don't see why not since you can do anything with chocolate. If you want to show the brain inside I would recommend to put them after. If you have a sharp knife just make a little hole in the skull by shaving the chocolate carefully and use melted chocolate to glue it. I made jell-o ones with clear gelatin and put what you like in it. This time I am decorating the skulls for "Dia de los muertos" the day of the death a Mexican tradition and the kids love to make them look in youtube and you'll see how nice they are. I hope I was a help, good luck and have tons of fun

i use 4 molds for one batch of hard candy(so they dont overflow and stick together over the edges). ive never used them for chocolate.

I would definitely think that for cupcakes it would work. However, I'm not sure about brownies. When I was a kid, we made brownies from "scratch" and they were unbelievably thick. These I don't think would work, but if you're making something from a box mix, like a cake batter, I would think it would work. I am very happy with my dispenser :)

I have used them for pie crust and fondant. Fondant works on the same principle. You should have no problem.

I didn't use it for sculpting...but based on how dry it was and how difficult it was to roll out I would think no..it wouldn't work well. You would probably be better off using modeling chocolate.

It could but I did not end up liking it. Once the cookies were baked, the image did not show up. It might work better for chocolate. I think if I was doing chocolate, I would look at those molds that are plastic like material and flexible. Not sure what they are called. Good luck!

No. These are bitter-sweet chocolates. I was disappointed in these because I followed the directions to the letter, but the chocolate stuck to my molds and I had to use hot water to wash the whole mess down the sink. If you want to mold candy, just go to the crafts store or Walmart and buy that chocolate for a lot less.

I agree with the others: they would work for little tarts. They are a little smaller than average cupcake tins, so great for richer desserts. I just love these little guys.

I don't think so. We put small candy in them for my daughter's party. Ice cream will prob run over and make a mess.

I bought it to use for truffle fillings and then dip them after they set up in the mold, but I'm sure you could paint the chocolate on and then add the truffle filling. Hope this helped

Hello. I'm not for sure. I didn't use them personally. Someone did a chess cake for my hubby. They turned out really good. So, I think they would do fine.

I would ythink that they would perfectly for that purpose. They are similar size with plastic lids instead of metal ones.

I am using these molds for soap molds but I bake also and would suggest using a "heavier, more dense" cake to use in these molds. Make sure they are cool before you remove. Good luck!

I really don't know, as I have never made hard candy lollipops. These are clear plastic, and fairly sturdy. What is specific to hard candy molds so that I may better answer your question?

I believe they should work. I use these to wrap my cake pops, and chocolate dipped strawberries. Hope this works good luck.

I am not sure - it is plastic so I am guessing not if your mixture is really not. The plastic is not really super thin, but making hard candy, like anise, etc. would just melt it, I'm sure

You need food grade bags, I don't think these are right for cotton candy. They do melt when heated. Search for "food grade" bags and you should easily find a good match.
