I saw this great metal dinosaur mold for cupcakes at Target, & I was wondering could that work for CP soap since I've used silicone molds for soap.

I saw that one too- but I think it's too hard and you would end up with stuck soap. I also think it may be cast iron (it was very heavy if we're talking about the same one) which reacts with CP.

Please don't use any metal!
It interacts with the lye from CP soap.

I agree with Soapbuddy... also if they are not flexible at all then getting your finished soap out would be next to impossible.

Thanks, Laura!

My dad's a welder and primary crafts with SS. I'm sure I can have him personalize a mold for me.
