Gold Bar Silicone Soap Mold

[MasterGiff]

Hey everybody!

I didn't really know where to post this because we don't have a forum that's equipment specific.

But I'm looking for a multi bar silicone mold in the shape of gold bars. I'm having a lot of trouble finding such a thing on the interwebs so I figured I'd check in with the experts. I have seen a couple single bar ones and ones that have different size bars in the same mold but that's not what I'm looking for. If anyone has a line on something they think would fit the bill, please let me know. The attached picture is for reference of the type of bars I would like to make. The image came from an Etsy shop that sells this particular one as a single bar mold.

Funny, I always thought we had something specific to equipment, but I've looked, and I'm not seeing it.

Maybe @Prysm @Relle @lsg and @IrishLass might consider adding that somewhere. Perhaps it might fit well with the existing Labels & Packaging sub-forum - which could become Equipment, Labels & Packaging.

Anyhoo, I think your best bet is to contact that Etsy seller and ask if they will do a custom order for you. If not, there are other Etsy sellers who make custom silicone soap molds. I have also heard that Cass at Wild Plantanica and @glendam sometimes make custom items, although I'm not sure if either of them makes molds. Good luck in your search!

Try contacting the seller. If they make the molds themselves they might be willing to work with you to make what you want.

If anyone is looking for anything it's best to put it in shopping recs.

@MasterGiff
I don't know what the dimensions are of a gold bar, but you can get SUPER CHEAP 8 cavity , 9 cavity, and/ or 12 cavity silicone soap molds (4 oz bars) on TEMU. I've bought some good molds and some duds on TEMU. But, you could look there. The worst that can happen is that you'll be out 10 bucks.
Wholesalesuppliesplus.com has some 8 cavity rectangle molds, too, by MILKY WAY that are inexpensive. Unfortunately, MilkyWays molds are all plastic. Good luck on finding a product that will work for you!

Oooh @akseattle I'm not sure if this is what you are suggesting, but here's the idea that your post just triggered in my head... buy an inexpensive set of cavity molds in the desired dimensions. Then buy a custom stamp to add the lettering to the bars. So easy!

@AliOop actually, I assumed that was @MasterGiff original intent-
to get a multiple cavity mold in the right size and then buy a custom stamp. It looks like @MasterGiff's photo is of pretty ordinary rectangle soaps that are stamped. I guess the trick is finding a multiple cavity mold with the right dimensions

That - plus if there are available molds with the shape of a prism, based on trapezoid - that's a total win!

Oh, I thought he was looking for cavity molds with the bottom that already had the lettering in it. My bad.

The other thing is that plain rectangle bars can be trimmed with a soap router so the edges match the profile that he is seeking. Wild Plantanica’s router probably has a router key that would work for this, and if not, she’s happy to make a custom router key.
