I just recently purchased this product called amazing mold putty. I love this product it is food safe. I purchased mine from micheals it was in the isle with the glues place low on the shelves it is expensive(19.99) but i purchased it with my 50% off coupon. You can make a flexible mold for things on your cakes it cures in 25 min give or take. i made one large one and 3 small ones and i was probably more generous with it than i needed to be.
Anyway here is a web site for those of you that can't find it near you.

Some thing new for my never ending equipment and supply list.
yes, very all you have to do is mix the 2 parts together in equal parts, until it is one solid color and then place it on the item you want to mold
there are some time constraints when mixing like they suggest that you mix and mold within 4 mins. So i just made sure that i had my items near by to mold. i also brought in extra pieces before mixing incase i had extra molding material so i didn't waste any of it.
How fun..I saw that at Hobby Lobby today in fact..What did you mold and do you have a picture? I'm very interested in what you did
That sounds really interesting. I would like to see your pics when you get them.
I dont understand ? lol
which is not unusual , what is the purpose of the mold you made ? what will you do next

Now i can make this item out of gum paste or chocolate and put it on the cake and it will be edible.
I think so that is a good thought. are u refuring to the flex of the final product or the beginning product. Because when you are working the product it feels like soft fondant. The package says that the thinner the final product the the more flexible it is.

I was wondering how many / what size molds can you make with one pack of the putty stuff. Did you use the whole pack to make the items shown in your pics? Or did you still have some left over?
Thanks for sharing to pictures and all---too coool
Yes i think it would, because you place the item on a flat surface and than push it down on to it. I would do a test run first and make sure that it works i didn't do it on fabric. you might find that it sticks to the fabric, i was thinking maybe you could coat it in a thin layer of wax(like the kind you find in the canning section of the grocery store.) . so that it looks wet, not cloudy with a thick layer. It might be worth a try.
i placed my pieces on parchment paper and i had to peel it away from it.
but the funny thing is my pieces removed with easy.
This stuff sounds like what Keith Ryder used when teaching his mold making class. There are allot of in's & out's with different techniques for lace, porous materials & 3D items.
For Lace he taught us;
First cut the lace to the size you want to mold
*Soak the lace in white glue, thoroughly working glue into each nook & cranny
*Squeeze out the excess then smooth out w/o stretching onto foam core.
*Allow piece to thoroughly (overnight is best)
*Cut the excess foam core away with exacto knife once piece had dried, the more clean the edges of foam core the deeper the mold cam be w/o ugly edges
*When ready to mold spray new lace template with Pam or rub Crisco into all the little areas to prevent the mold material from sticking, gently wipe or dab off extra Pam
*Mix product according to package directions then we used a non stick or disposable flat bottom bowl to smooth out "stuff" into the similar shape you will be impressing
*Gently press the template into the "stuff" checking for depth & evenness on all sides. The deeper you press the deeper your lace can be, do not remove the template until cured
*Keith's product needed to cure so we used a heat lamp to speed the process but you will have to read the directing for the product you use
*Once mold is cured, remove template & clean it off to reuse if you like
* You can make the reverse side of the lace by using your new mold as a template. Again spray with Pam, wipe off or dab off excess
*Press small mount of "stuff" into new mold making sure all small areas are filled first adding "stuff a little at a time. You do need to work fast so each bit you ad doesn't dry to much, keep adding & mailing sure you don't have have any air bubbles
*Repeat curing process, once dry you may need to use an exacto knife to remove new reverse side
*Clean both pieces with exact knife until it is as clean & neat as you like
Wow! Didn't realize that I remembered all that!
It has been a couple years since I took the class, guess Keith is a good teacher!!!! If I do make any lace in the near future I will take pictures to add to the directions & post the instructions in the how to area. LOL

i have to say because it was the 1st time i used it i purchased 2 kits. and used 1 and 1/2 of them i was worried that i would not have enough with one. P.S. i made one other one where i incased the items and it did not come out properly. but the box shows that you can make several small to medium pieces, from one box. 15 in the pic.
tyty you are very welcome.
