Make awesome. That's what this book is about. That is what the Setting You Up For Success Series is about. You're awesome, and you can make awesome chocolate shapes. This is a book that will teach you, inspire you, and help you make those crazy ideas that are rolling around in your head into chocolate. Along with our tutorials, we want to inspire you to try to make your own amazing ideas real. Throughout this book we show you examples of work others have done using chocolate, fondant, and many other edible materials with ComposiMold. For something truly unique, you need your own special design, maybe even many special mold designs. With ComposiMold's Re-usable mold making material, you are able to make as many unique molds as you want. You can use many methods for mold making using ComposiMold and casting with chocolate, fondant, gum paste, gummy recipes, modeling chocolate, cookie dough, butter, and more. The ComposiMold mold making material works by melting. You melt it in the microwave (or double boiler or chocolate melter) and it solidifies by cooling. When you have made all the chocolate casts that you want with one mold, it can be re-melted to make other molds.
Author Biography
We are makers. We love to make things that we can touch and use. And we love to eat chocolate. So the perfect combination of making things in chocolate and then eating it. As makers, we like to make things that are real. And we are not alone: Millions and millions of people are part of this making world. Candle makers making unique candle shapes. Hobby makers: train parts, fishing lures, and robots. Jewelry, Cake and chocolate makers for weddings and birthday cakes. Art and Craft makers for sculpture, and scrapbooking. ComposiMold is the tool that all these makers use to make their ideas into real materials. Stan started ComposiMold because he was frustrated at his inability to make lightweight plastic shapes for his model rocket and airplane parts. He needed to mold and cast my designs, but the main options were basically latex and silicone, which are toxic, hard to use, and if you make a mistake you are out of luck, because you have to start again at the beginning. ComposiMold mold making materials are eco-friendly, safe, and very easy to use. Melts in the microwave and what you don't use can be remelted and used again...no worries, no fuss, you just can focus on making. ComposiMold is the easiest, safest, and most affordable mold making material in the world. Our goal is to get ComposiMold into the hands of all the makers throughout the world. Take almost any shape, made from clay, printed on a 3-D printer, or something you found at a Maine Summer Yard Sale. Pour or Press ComposiMold mold making materials over it, and you are ready to duplicate your part into chocolate fondant, and even Jell-O.
