I am trying to make a fisherman out of fondant...Is there a special mold for its face? If so, where can I purchase it?

you can pick up an inexpensive mans doll head from a fabic store and use it to make a gumpaste mold. let the mold dry for a dry and harden. them use fondant in the mold and voila! you got a face. there it an article on here showing how to make a fairy. the process is similar HTH

Yes there are molds for faces, Bodys, Legs, Arms but you dont have to buy any thing like that to make your face... Here is an article that shows you how to make a face just leave out the step where she cuts off half of the face cause its laying on its side..

Joanns & Hobby Lobby have them & I'm sure Michaels too. Mine are Sculpy brand, you find them in the clay section.
