It may come as no surprise, but I’m a huge chocolate fan (dark chocolate, preferred). And I enjoy making crafts that look edible, but aren’t. Typically I’ll make candies or other desserts, but I wanted to start making things that look like chocolate. When I did a search for chocolate bar molds, there surprisingly wasn’t much out there – mostly generic looking rectangles. But I wanted one that anyone would look at and immediately know it was a chocolate bar.
Therefore the classic crafter thought kicked in – “I’ll just make it myself.” So looking into various custom mold making options, I found Amazing Mold Putty. This stuff is fantastic for making quick little flexible silicone molds. They’re food-safe as well so you can actually make real chocolate bars with the mold as well so it functions as an actual chocolate mold as well. But so far I’ve used it to make chocolate chalk and chocolate bath bombs.

What is Amazing Mold Putty
Amazing Mold Putty is an easy way to make DIY molds at home. It comes with a container of silicone mold putty and a container of rubber mold putty. When mixed together, the two putties combine to make a flexible mold that cures in 20 minutes.
To use Amazing Mold Putty, you mix equal amounts of Putty A and Putty B (the silicone and rubber mold putty). Putty A is white and putty B is yellow so that you can easily see how well you’ve combine them. You want to make sure you mix them thoroughly so that you get a pale yellow color. If you don’t, you’ll have different textures with some parts being more flexible than others.
Once mixed together, you then press the putty around the object you’re making a custom mold of. Make sure the putty is not too thick or it will be difficult to remove the item.
Let it cure for 20 minutes and then remove the item. Then your new homemade chocolate mold is ready to use.
