I need help with my silicone soap molds

[Adamkindasoaps]

I have silicone loaf molds for my soap, but they aren’t very sturdy, so the sides of the mold bulge out and I end up with short and very wide soap. The molds are tapered at the bottom, so they aren’t straight up and down, but I would just like them to keep their shape. Let me know if you have any ideas!

Some people use a stack of books ( or something similar) on either side of the mold to support the sides.

Right. Or wood support, or any object that's straight and you can place it next to the silicone.
