Does anyone know where or how I can make my own candy molds? The small plastic molds for lollipops, etc would work great, but I need a custom shape.
Anyone ever done this?
Thank you!

If you have a shape to work from, you could make a plaster mold, then coat it with some sort of food safe material.
Or you could get a lollipop mold and use your shape and a heat gun to remake the mold into your shape.
Considering how many molds are availlable, I wonder if what you want is out there, somewhere. What are you trying to make?

It depends what you're trying to make.
My chocolate instructor often uses crisco for his molds.

If you have a vacuum press or know someone who does, it's very easy. Just make a mold of the shape you want to attain some food grade plastic to make them with.
