Chocolate Molds

Chocolate and candy-making molds are available in many different shapes and sizes. Form chocolate bars, hearts, eggs, bonbons, and more. Most molds include many forms on one sheet, so you can make several chocolates or candies of the same shape at once.

Choose from manufacturers including Chocolate World, JB Prince, Pavoni, and Martellato. Most molds are made of food-safe polycarbonate, but select options are available in plastic, polyethylene, and silicone.

 To mold chocolates, simply melt chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave. Keep track of the chocolate’s temperature with a chocolate thermometer. Then, pour the melted chocolate into the molds. Pop the filled molds into the freezer and wait for the chocolate to set. If you’re making candy, follow the same procedure with your sugar recipe. Use a confection thermometer to monitor the temperature.

Making chocolates and candies is fun and easy. With so many molds, it’s easy to find shapes you’ll like. Choose themed ones for holidays, like hearts for Valentine’s Day, or make simple bars or bonbons. Whatever shape you make, they’re sure to be tasty!

FAQs

1. What type of chocolate molds do professionals use?
 Professional chocolatiers often choose polycarbonate chocolate molds for their striking shine, durability, and ease of releasing chocolate. They deliver crisp detail and smooth edges that elevate bar, bonbon, and candy presentations.

2. What is the best chocolate to use for molds?
 Couverture chocolate is ideal when using professional molds because its high cocoa‑butter content ensures a glossy finish and satisfying snap. Be sure to properly temper your chocolate. These bars shine best when poured into molds like the Poly Chocolate Bar Mold Tablet – 6 Forms.

3. What’s the difference between silicone and polycarbonate molds?
 Silicone chocolate molds are flexible and easy to demold, making them great for hobbyists and fun shapes. Polycarbonate molds, such as the Textured Square 5‑Form Mold or Wind Waves Tablet Mold, offer rigid construction and sharper detail, which are preferred in professional kitchens.
