Default Candy molds -- custom?

Does anyone know where or how I can make my own candy molds? The small
plastic molds for lollipops, etc would work great, but I need a custom
shape.

Anyone ever done this?

Thank you!

If you have a shape to work from, you could make a plaster mold, then
coat it with some sort of food safe material.

Or you could get a lollipop mold and use your shape and a heat gun to
remake the mold into your shape.

Considering how many molds are availlable, I wonder if what you want is
out there, somewhere. What are you trying to make?

If you have a vacuum press or know someone who does, it's very easy. Just
make a mold of the shape you want to attain some food grade plastic to make
them with.
