Has Anyone Ever Melted Gumpaste To Pour Into A Mold?

AI wondered what kind of mold you were using after I posted that! Yes, you'd need a different kind of paint for chocolate or you can dry dust it.
I wouldn't melt the Gumpaste, I'd just stick it in the mold and pop it in the freezer for a few, it should come out easier (you might need to first brush your mold with cornstarch or something). Then you let it dry outside of the mold, it will be very firm-if you need it to curve around your cake you should dry it on a cake dummy (I wrap them in parchment or wax paper the rub a bit of Crisco so it doesn't stick).
AThank you for that information. I'm making my own mold from an actual belt buckle that I have. It has some little intricate design details that I was afraid would not get picked up by just pressing the gumpaste in. I guess I'll give it a try and see how it turns out before I come up with a Plan B. Thank you
