Instead of using just chocolate in the molds could you use...

Marzipan?
Fondant?
Buttercream icing??

Just wondering!

Im wiling to be the brave soul and try if no one else has LOL

I used the Wilton bunny mold to make some MMF bunnies. It was from a cake in one of the yearbooks. I think they turned out pretty good, I just had to grease the mold slightly. I tried first with just powdered sugar yeah right, should have known better! I'm sure you could mold marzipan or gumpaste or anything else.

I have used fondant in a heart shaped mold. I dusted the mold with corn starch and turned the mold unside down and taped them out. It worked great.

youtakethecake......How long did you let the fondant dry before you took them out?

I have used candy molds with fondant.. I just pushed them in ad poped them out, then let them air dry.

That is how I did the shells on my beach cake

Hope that helps!

Do you color your fondant first, or do you use a petal/luster dust on them after you've molded them and they've dried?

I color them and then add any dusts afterwards

I've never tried this but may have to soon. Thanks Florimbio!

Can you use rolled buttercream in molds, too?

I do all the time, it is just a bit softer, so it can be tricky to get it out of the mold, it works better if the object is bigger
