I have just bought the silicone mould but it has no instructions on how to use it. Can someone explain to me please? icon_smile.gif

use gum paste or fondant, press as much of either one into the mold. Put it in the fridge for 20-30 mins. Then slowly pull out the mold.

I put mine in the freezer instead of the fridge, that is what the lady at First Impressions told me to do. Also dust your fondant and not your mold... if you dust the mold with cornstarch it will stick in the indentions and look funny.

Basically.... tint your fondant the color you want, roll it into a smooth ball, dust with cornstarch, squish into the mold (make sure you get it into all of the crevices), remove excess from back and flatten, freeze for 20 minutes, remove from mold, let assume room temperature and then dust/paint as wanted.

Thanks for your tips. Is it possible to create the baby out of chocolate?

Should be... I would assume that you would want to pour the chocolate into the mold.. let it set and then remove. You might even need to freeze it for a while as well.
