I need a 3D chocolate baby bottle, and every site that his them charges more for shipping than for the mold. Is it possible to cut a plastic baby bottle in half and use it as a mold?

You can mold tempered chocolate in almost anything. the chocolate will shrink as it cools, and pull away from the mold.

if that doesn't work, try Ebay. I always find great deals on there for molds.
Let us know if it works!

There are chocolate molds that are shaped like baby bottles. (see my picture below) The mold was less than $2.

If it is only $2 for the mold like the other lady says I would invest even if it takes $3 to ship !!! To make a full size baby bottle mold your self is big work and the mold making supplies will come to more than $5 and you will also still need to buy a bottle if you dont have one!

Hope this helps
Great luck

I've ordered from these folks several times and found the shipping to be very reasonable. They have lots of baby molds...shoes, rattles, rubber ducks, safety pins, etc. Also have ordered from sugarcraft w/o another problems.
