Q.)
Why does it cost $99.95 for only 6 custom molds when I can buy stock
candy molds from a craft store for around $5.00 each?
A.)
Stock candy molds or craft molds you purchase from a craft store are
made by the container load (Semi Truck Trailer Sized Containers) in
countries like China and brought over to the USA and distributed to
all the craft stores for sale. Our molds for making custom candy molds
are done on an individual basis for each customer on very specialized
equipment. Normally, it can cost thousands of dollars for a custom mold
to be made to manufacture plastic food grade molds that can be used
for making chocolate or confectionery molding. There are companies out
there that supply custom candy bars and other molded candies, but the
cost to have them made can only be absorbed by very large corporations
or wealthy people needing such services. Our charge to manufacture a
very small amount of molds for use by a single customer or group to
raise funds with is an incredible deal. We only hope we can keep that
price down to that level so our customers can continue to afford them.
Q.)
Is it difficult to make our own chocolate or confectionery bars with
the custom molds you make for us?
A.)
No! It is in fact so simple that just about anyone can do it, even children
under adult supervision. Simply melting confectionery chips as found
in most craft stores or grocery stores in a microwave or double boiler
is all you need to do for casting in the molds. A piece of wax paper
under the molds helps catch the mess, and any that is cooled on the
wax paper or left from scraping the molds level can be heated again
and used to make more castings. There is virtually no waste at all,
and even broken bars can be re melted for casting new ones.
Cooling
the bars in the refrigerator makes the job go faster, and the confectionery
will generally fall out of the molds when turned over once cooled.
