Default 'Food Grade Mold' Recipe

NOTE: Prepare mold by securely attaching item to bottom of container, using glue gun, glue, paste, etc... Make enough mix to completely cover chosen item, keeping the container as close in size to the item as possible, less waste. Most clear plastic cookware, disposable margarine tubs, silicone containers, etc..., work here. May spray item & inside of container before adding mold mixture.

2 oz gelatin
1/4 cup cool water
1/3 cup glycerin
1 1/4 tsp glucose (was in original recipe, I forgot it this time & the mold turned out well. Can be added with the glycerin)
1/6 tsp coconut oil as your solvent

1. Warm the glycerin in microwave (20-30 seconds) & set aside. (You do NOT add it to the gelatin unheated).

2. Mix the water & the gelatin. Start mixing immediately & keep mixing until all the water & the gelatin is thoroughly mixed together. DON'T STOP mixing or it will separate & congeal in layers. When ready, the mess should be consistent in quality.

3. Heat in microwave, for 20 sec. intervals, & stir until the gelatin is melted and free from lumps.

4. Add the warmed glycerin (and glucose if desired) and stir until blended.

5. Add the coconut oil, and stir until thoroughly blended. It is now ready to use, & should be used while warm.



As for the 'glucose', try it both ways to see which one you prefer.

Cooling the new mold can be accelerated by placing in the refrigerator. To remove, place finger near edge, pull toward center to detach from side, & lift out.
