Teach Soap

Is there any way to use a ceramic mold, or would that not be safe? I found a cute caterpillar mold that I would love to use, but wanted to make sure it would be good to use it.

That would be almost impossible to use. I'm almost positive the soap wouldn't come out.

Although you could probably cast your own silicone mold from it.

Ceramic won't work. You need something that's at least a little flexible, so the soap can come out.

ijm had a very good idea, if you already own this form. Otherwise if would be costly. You would have to first do a cold cast mold and then do a silicone mold over that one. Depending on technique and the form itself you could end up loosing some of the detail.

Would there be any chance they could make it work if they lubricated the ceramic first, popped the MP in the freezer after it hardened, and then ran it under hot water for a few seconds? That's worked for the more stubborn molds I've used.

Okay. I thought it probably wouldn't work, but I just wanted to make sure! Thank you!
