I apologize if this has already been discussed, but I couldn't find it.

I'm looking for some sources to create custom chocolate molds. I've done several with a company overseas which has been great -- I send them a jpg file, and then send back some digital treatments, and when it's finalized they make 50 molds and ship them to me.

The process takes only a few weeks, and works well and is reasonably priced, but I'd like to work with a US company if possible.

Anyone have any recommendations?

There is the Chicago School of Mold Making ( chicagomoldschool.com ). They have a section on their site about custom work, although it is mostly silicone molds.

Hey there Brian! I use this stuff to help with odd jobs. Knead-a-mold. I have had to use it for sculpture pieces and also if a customer wants a certain form made into chocolate. Last I used it for sculpting a chocolate hippo for someone...they had the shape they wanted, a small wooden carved hippo and then I made a 3-D mold from that form. It is so easy to use! It is a good thing to have on hand.Also, I know someone who has a vac-u-form machine and can make plastic molds from shapes. Let me know if you need their contact info! Both of these sources are in Chattanooga, TN...where I am from. If the link doesn't work for knead-a-mold...you can look it up at www.townsendatelier.com

Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
