I would like to know if this mold would be good for candle making. If yes, will I be able to have a standing angel?

Ok, I looked it up & here is your answer: http://gbcraft.com/shop/silicone-mold/praying-mold?mode=list so, YES, u can!

I've used plaster, and wood putty, as well as polymer clay and resin, and every one of them came out just fine. If the mold would have an easily accessible place to remove the item being molded, it will most likely work just fine. The only issue I had with the quick-set rubber was that it could be stiffer than others and eventually break. If you're only making one copy, you'll be fine. More than 10 copies if it's intricate, you may have a problem. Other silicone rubbers might do a better job for the more intricate items if you're making multiples, but otherwise you'll be fine.

Yes indeed you can. Actually that is its most common use. I would recommend using a little bit of mold releasing compound if you are going to be casting detailed pieces. I average about 15 really good resin pieces from my molds when using this product.

Yes - you can make nice casts of items with good detail and then use another medium to build - I used green stuff myself. On point to mention - I tried this with resin plastics and the heat created by the plastic destroyed the mold - I did get a decent copy. I just melted the instant mold and used it again with no real harm. Very nice to those one off molds you may need.

I did a 10", 8" tiered lace cake with butterflies and angels and still had enough for another cake just like it, however, it does depend on your molds. It is a terrific product.

Yeah I'm sure it will be fine. It's custom, so just be sure when making the mold to get a good impression of the gap.

BC, I am not sure I understand the question. I have used this with several molds. My mold is a 6 and 8 ounce "no role". I see no reason why it would not work fine with a mold with more cavities. The "Do-it" sinker molds fit nicely under the lead outlet and there is an adjustable attachment that can be moved up or down one of the pot legs to hold the weight of the mold. The hot lead comes out of an opening in the underside of the melting pot and the flow is slightly adjustable. I hope this answer is helpful but again, I am not sure I understand the question.Tom BC, I am not sure I understand the question. I have used this with several molds.

I have an aromatherapy amphora, and I would stick with kiln-fired clay for an item like this, personally. You might give this air dry clay a shot for a room amphora or "biscuit," but I wouldn't wear it, because I'm pretty sure the oils and moisture would break down the dried clay piece.

I bought it to make soap and it works great. I believe it would do just fine for candles also. Hope this helps.

You'll have enough to make 4-6 candles. I ordered some additional wax since I wanted to make more. Hope this helps.

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!

Perhaps, but it would be thin and may not produce the best form/mold. But if you made a hybrid mold with plaster and then the silicone for the detail sure.

Yes. That's the point of this kind of mold. Other sounds flow around it without issue.

I bought the large mold and it is pretty small. Not even large enough for one box of regular cake mix. I think the small mold would be too small. I bought this mold because I used to purchase the lamb cake from Tate's bakery in Southampton. I got the recipe from them online for their coconut cake. It came out so good, people are offering to buy the lamb cake from me next Easter. I would recommend the large mold.

Its pretty rigid but if you used a strong lubricant like shortening I am sure they would come out but you candle would look like a fudgesicke with some indents on the sides which could be considered decorative I guess. So yes. If you used a spray cooking oil I would be concerned about the hot wax disolving the oil which would mean you would have to put the mold in some boiling or very hot water to loosen them. Good Luck sounds like it could be a nice project.

The mold is clear, with indentations to represent the veins. If you were thinking of using it for an unusual valentines mold, it would work but be aware there are issues with whatever you put in it not coming out. Hope this helps :)

Yes to all questions. Have used it a lot as a mold for home made caramel, never a problem.
