Decorating With Fondant


Decorating with fondant is a lot like playing with clay. Much like clay, Fondant is rolled out and can be cut into designs and formed into just about any shape. Rolled fondant is the flexible, easy-to-shape icing that allows cake decorates to make cut-outs and ruffled borders. Fondant is used to make fun figures such as clowns, dolls, bouquets and pressed accents.
Fondant works great in push molds, and push molds are a way for bakers to make stunning 3D embellishments to create amazing looking cakes, cupcakes and chocolates. 
In addition to making deserts, molds are often used by crafters to make candles, soaps, and jewelry.

What is Mold Making


Mold making is the process used to duplicate three dimensional models or objects. A model is any object that has depth, and an original model can be made from almost anything. If you were making your own object to mold, you might use clay, rock, or plastic. Through the use of a mold making material a negative, or a reverse, of a model part is made, the negative can then be used to cast a second part that is the same size and shape as the original part.

Simple parts such as relief sculptures can be duplicated by using a one part mold. The casting material is poured or pressed into the mold indentation. The casting material can range from clay, soap, chocolate, concrete, liquid plastic, play-dough, and metal castings.

You can make two part molds or even three or more part molds. Mold sizes can range from a few millimeters to many feet in size. Mold making is used in industry to make duplicates of a wide variety of creations ranging from car parts to Christmas ornaments. More complicated molds may include a variety of molded parts, rigid parts of the molds, inserts, a variety of resins and fillers, and a lot of setup and thought.

At home mold making is typically performed using a rubber mold making material that can be poured on or around the object to be duplicated. The mold can then be filled with casting materials of your choice. For example, many cake decorators or chocolate makers use molds to create unique shapes from their chocolates or use molds to shape fondant into special shapes. Home soap and candle makers duplicate unique shapes and designs. Hobbyist use molds to make components for their trains and to make improvements to the backdrops and sceneries.  Even fishermen enjoy molding their own unique fishing lures.




Mold making can be fun and useful. With patience and persistence, you can mold and cast just about anything. You can make unique gifts and fix broken parts. To learn more about molding, casting and the products associated with Mold Making visit http://composimold.com

Calling All Eco-Conscious Artists and Craftsmen

You can use CompsiMold to mold and cast organic objects too!

We all want to live up to our highest potential as artists and craftsmen, but not at the expense of the planet. Right?

ComposiMold's greatest quality is it's responsibility to the environment. It is composed of 100% natural ingredients and it will biodegrade if left in an aqueous environment. There were absolutely no petroleum products used in the production of this organic polymer and in fact, the stuff is compostable!

This certainly eases my mind when I'm melting it in our family's kitchen, when I'm pouring the melted product and smelling the orange oil used as a light fragrance, and when I'm handling it and then handling my baby. 

As artists and craftsmen we constantly make choices as we create. Let's choose to be more conscious about the impact on our environment as we purchase, use, and dispose of our supplies.
