Can I use with generic lace molds? Or do I need to get sugar veil molds?

I tried it with a number of different lace molds but did not get good results so sugar veil molds are required and they are quite costly.

I have bought generic molds. Some worked, most did not. Sugarveil can be frustrating to use. I am sure with the sugar veil molds, it would be a lot easier.

I do believe that any mold will work although I have not tried it before...not much help I know - but it is worth a try if you have extra sugarveil - good luck!

I haven't used the generic molds because the sugar veil molds fold back and are easy to release the lace. When I use the oil spray on molds, the lace is the color of the spray. Generic molds require oil spay. I think it would be great to try one and see how it works. Then please let the rest of us know. I have had good results with the sugar veil molds. They are expensive.

with sugar veil molds it works good, but with others I believe you will not get such a nice job and you'll spend a lot of sugar veil powder...

You can use any mold safe to use for food. You want to keep it kind of thin so it dries but experiment.

If you don't want to know real specifics you don't need to send it in. If you want to know the type of mold you need to send it in. But I just wanted some general answers so I bought two. One for outside as a control and the other for the room in question. Worked fine for what I wanted without sending it in to a lab and paying extra $$.

Hi Ericha. I used them for sugar skuls and they worked great! If you have a good sugar skul recipe you can use practically any plastic mold. I should mention that there are some molded "cracks in the design like sutures in the top of the skull that might not look traditional but we covered them with decorations. One of my favorite molds for sugar skulls.

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.

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

If you are referring to cupcake papers, none. This is a cake mold. Since it is silicone, you do not need anything in it. Just make sure it is completely dry before you use it.

I used 1 pound of melting chocolate for about 5 different molds of all sizes and I ended up with well over 60 molds. It will make quite a bit. And the boots stayed awesome. I can't give you an exact amount that it makes, but you should easily get at least 80-100.

You can, or use the kind that comes in a tube. I would advise wearing a protective mask because of the strong chemical odor in both types. Bottled fabric glue gradually thickens and then won't come out of itsspout. I was given advice to thin it with nail polish remover, but that didn't work... all it did was sit on the top of the glue, even when I shook it fiercely. The glues that come in tubes are less stringy, and can be found in your local crafts store.

It's just one mold that makes half-spheres. I did have to order another one when I discovered this. They don't connect perfectly, so you might find you need to clamp them together while the bath bombs dry (I've had marginal success using bulldog clips) Cheers!

Probably two orders of this would do that. Depends how thick you want your mold. When making molds always get more than you think you need. If you're pouring the mold and you run out then the mold is incomplete and useless. I don't know where you live but ordering directly from smoothon is usually faster. They have facilities in Texas and Pennsylvania. You can't beat their products.

You can try a mousse (sp) or a cheese cake. spray with pam so it wont stick to mold.

Hello Clarecrow, Either One Will Work. I Prefer The Recipe That Came With The Wands. Thank You!

I'm using a Lee 4 cavity mold and it works fine. You do have to turn the mold around to fill.

If you mean to use the mold for chocolate, you have to add little amount of shortining to chocolate while melting. But if you use it for fondant or sugar paste, it won't break.

Not sure about sugar skulls, can you pour the sugar mix into the mold let set then pop out?If so yes.

It depends on which package you get. The reason so many are having trouble is because the company that made them apparently changed the molds half-way through production. The package my mom got fits into both her machine and mine. The package I got (which looked identical) fit into neither of our machines. It's a crap shoot. Good luck!
