What is Mold Making Material made of?
Mold Making Material is made of high quality, platinum silicone, a pure, food grade material that contains no fillers or by-products. Platinum silicone is odorless, non-toxic, and has no VOCs or BPA. Once cured, it’s 100% safe to use for molds as it will not contaminate food that comes into contact with it.

How do you make a homemade mold out of silicone?

Mold Making Material allows you to create custom molds for shaping food items. The product comes in two parts that, when mixed together, cure from a liquid silicone to a flexible, high strength rubber, perfect for DIY molds.

Simply mix equal amounts (by volume) of Part A and Part B until the color is one, consistent, blue hue.

Mold Making Material has a working time of 45 minutes. Pour the mixed product into a plastic or plastic lined container containing the 3D object(s) you’d like to reproduce. Pour slowly and cover the object. Let the silicone cure for 3 hours at room temperature until it’s no longer sticky to the touch.
TIP: Tack down objects with a bit of glue to help them stand straight or prevent them from shifting once you pour in the Mold Making Material.

Carefully remove the cured silicone from the box mold. Using a utility knife, cut an opening at the bottom of the mold and carefully wiggle the object(s) out. Wash the silicone mold cavity in warm, soapy water using a mild dish soap and a soft sponge. Rinse and allow to dry.
