can this be used with candy melts

Yes, that's what I used. I added food coloring also. I had the best luck using a double boiler with the candy melts. The texture was more consistent & flowed into the molds. Make sure the molds are thoroughly cooled before trying to remove candy from molds. Have fun!!

It's actually plastic. I melted chocolate and then put into mold and in refrigerator

Oh yes. That is what this mold is made for. It worked beautifully for my chocolates. Just be sure to chill mold about 15-20 minutes before trying to unmold, otherwise the chocolate will break apart or will not release very well. Hope this helps.

Yes! I used it with candy melts and was able to do a lovely job the very first time I used this mold!!!

I would think so. When I used it I made the candies using a block of chocolate bark, stuff you use for Christmas cookies. I hope this was helpful

I don't know what the melt method is. Sorry I can't be of more help to you. Good luck.

No, you can use it. It will not melt,its pretty thick and with stand the heat. Hope this helps!

I have onlyused it on cookies covered with royal icing, which is a dry, hard surface. It is beautiful--completely metallic. I am not sure it would dry as well on chocolate candies, but even if it was ess opaque, it would be an elegant touch.

I have not done it, but the instructions say you can. No melting parts. I love this pan more every time I use it!

I use this mold for the hard crack stage. It has warped some and doesn't lay flat until heated up by a new batch again. As it cools, it warps again. That said, it does not affect the candy. It still comes out in the correct shapes.

It gets warm, but not hot. It would keep the more liquidy form of caramel warm enough to dunk, but if your speaking in terms of caramel candy..no way. It takes over an hour to melt chocolate as it is. It also says up to 72 minutes right in the manual so they have no shame in the products inability to work right from start. It's better to use for keeping things warm (pre-melted candies).

I don't know. The inside tray is plastic so I'm sure it would melt. Hope I never have to find out. In this case, I think you get what you pay for.

Probably would from my experience, but you have to worry about heat. It melts easily.

I would not use if for candy..Amazon has several candy specific thermometers for 8-10 bucks. Good Luck!

I have not but I think it would melt just fine. I have used it to bake in place or regular sugar and it tastes great. I have also used it in coffee and iced tea, tasty yummy.

It should work for candy as long as you're not planning on leaving the thermometer in the oven or leaning against the side of a hot pot on the stove. The housing is plastic so it will melt if it gets too hot. I'm not really sure how candy is cooked so I can't say for sure. This thermometer is designed for quick temperature checks during preparation. I use it to check the internal temp. of grilled and broiled meats mainly.

I don't think hot caramel would be hot enough to melt the trays, so you should be able to make caramels in them.

You need food grade bags, I don't think these are right for cotton candy. They do melt when heated. Search for "food grade" bags and you should easily find a good match.

This is the mold. You can melt candy melts and pour them into the mold to get colors or you can temper chocolate and use.

Yes it does. I use it for hard candy, taffy, and even frosting. Be careful! Very hot. 1 tsp is too hot for some

I have never tried it, but it might work if the chocolate is suppose to be melted at a low degree. Think of the babycakes as a warmer like a fondue pot. You heat it up in the microwave and then the warmer keeps it warm.
