Hello,
I'm an artist working on a project that involves candy. Basically,
what I want to make is "shaped" candies- small, hard candy in the
shape of figures, like dogs, mushrooms, monsters...
I have extensive experience in moldmaking and casting so I
understand that I'll need to be making some molds for the candy.
Does anybody here know exactly which material I should make the
mold out of? Plastic, metal, plaster, rubber?
I've read many books on the subject as part of my research, but
none cover how to make candies in more complex, reproducable shapes.
Any help or direction to good sources would be much appreciated.
Thanks
-Juanito
