Are this molds big enough for soap bars. How big is the single figure and brick? Thank you!

The molds are pretty small. We used them for candy- The lego man is about 2-3 inches in height and maybe 1-2 inches deep. The lego bricks are a little bigger!

The Bricks would probably work for soap. The Minifigures would, too, they'd just be small. I posted a video review a couple of days ago that shows the Minifigures next to a ruler, so look at that to get an idea of how big they are. http://www.amazon.com/review/R18ATZWO4DNSA5/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B007MJFVJM (FYI, I redid my video to include the pictures with the ruler, but the old video still plays sometimes.

The minifigures are exactly the actual Lego minifigure size, about 1 1/2 inches, too small for a soap IMHO, the bricks are a bit bigger but still too small for a soap bar, they are about 1 7/8 x 1 x 1/2 inch. Speaking of soap bars, there is another Lego mold with a bigger size minifigure on amazon, as I gathered from the reviews, some people like to use that bigger "man" for soap bar making. HTH!

I have both the Brambleberry and this Freshware mold as well. For soap making, the Brambleberry mold has better support and the bar shape turns out nicely. The Freshware mold bows out and the sides are rounded. Hope this helps.

I never measured them however that are a nice size. The mold is deceiving. I would say they double in size.

I use it as a mold for small solid lotion bars and each bar weighs about .7 ounces.

I don't have it right with me to weigh. But I think there were 3 bars at about 1/2 ounce each.I was able to make a mold of a stone wolf head that was 1 1/4" wide and 2 " tall by 1/2" deep using all 3 bars melted together-it came out quite well.Next time I purchase Instant Mold I would go with a larger size so I don't have to keep melting it down for different molds.

I've never made soap or seen soap molds before, but I bought this for my sister to use for ice and it seems flexible and durable enough for what you're looking for. I'm feeling pretty positive about it being used for a soap mold! I really hope it works out because it's super cute for ice!! :)

I have the BB cube mold. I agree it is made well, however, it is a pain to get the soap out. So I am eager to try this. Because I am also going to try putting bubble bars in it:-)

This mold was a gift to go with a soap making kit. It makes really cute soaps, but I cannot say what the weight of each bar was.

The mold measures 3 7/8 inches, but my popsicles I measured were 3 1/4 to 3 1/2 inches long. They are very difficult to get out of the mold so I don't fill them to the very top, and I lose a little from the hot water used to get them out of the mold. What will you be using them for?

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.

I don't have any measurements but this box will hold one soap bar the same size as a bar of Irish Spring and or Dove!

10-11 bars; u will absolutely love these--I wish I had used them from the start--you will be amazed! My girlfriend has been using the plastic ones for over 40yrs; she is now a "convert" after I showed her mine; she couldn't believe how pristine they come out--and bought 20 of these molds. Now, if I can just find these in the goat milk mold that I like I would buy it in a heartbeat!!!

I don't have a bar of soap to measure, but I think it's about 2" x 4". It's larger than an average-sized bar of soap.

Hi Angela, I don't have the mold in front of me but they are on the larger side. I was hoping they were smaller so I could use them on cupcakes but they are too big for that. I would say they are close to 21/2"- 3". Hope that helps!

There is an octagon mold and a square mold. I'd say there are roughly seven inches wide.

I believe the capacity is about 1 oz and maybe about an inch and a bit across. I used this mold for bath melts. A very crisp clean mold that gives a shiny surface.

Maybe this mold changed, but I should have double checked, because I have been planning my soap waiting for the mold to arrive. I used the measurements provided here to begin planning my recipe. Upon receiving and measuring, the inside measurements are 10x3x3 and the mold holds 48oz. To measure molds for soapmaking you multiply all 3 dimensions by .40, equaling 36 ounces for base oils. Add in 30% water and there is another near 11 ounces. This mold holds 48 fluid ounces and makes 3 pounds of soap, uncured. Very happy with it though. If you buy this, plan on building a wooden support for it as the center gapes with the pressure of the fluids.
