You can buy Wilton's seashell candy molds in the cake decorating section of your craft store (Michael's, Hobby Lobby, JoAnn's). They are made for use with Wilton's candy melts, but can also be used to mold fondant or gumpaste. If you use fondant or gumpaste, you can brush them with super pearl when they're done to give them a nice sheen. Good luck!

I use the candy molds. If you want the shells to be two tone just mix a different colored melt in with the others. You don't have to "mix" it together they just turn out swirled.
