Hello! I wanted to use this to make jello in. Is the plastic pliable enough so I can just pop the jello out?

It's a harder plastic. Maybe if you sprayed it and they could fall out but you cannot push the plastic. I wouldn't think that it would be any different than a typical jello mold though.

Unfortunately not... spraying a little non-stick in the molds might work though. Best of luck with your Jello endeavors!

I don't see why not. I don't believe I'd put boiling water in the mold. By the time you've stirred the jello to dissolve completely, I'd still wait a bit to pour into mold. I have regular jello molds, but they're a more firm plastic than this mold. Can't hurt to give it a try.

Absolutely. In fact aluminum is a great medium for dishes you wish to keep cold like jello because of its thermal conductivity. Just remember to only use plastic and wooden utensils on this pan. Do not use metal as it will damage the anodizing.

Hi! I tried it with jello and it did not work well at all. I did not spray it first however, so I am not sure if that would have worked better. I think unless it is hardened, it probably will not turn out as you'd like. The size is around 1.5-2 in... there abouts... a good size. Experiment first and Good luck!

No. The plastic would melt as it is made of the same material used for plastic cutting boards.

Yes, the jello releases quite easily. Once you release the middle ring it will drop onto the plate.

I suppose you could, but it going to be difficult to transfer to plate. The middle has a rod that is attached to the bottom to seal the bottom and not allow the cake batter to leak out. After the jello sets, you will have to remove the rod and then you will have a hole in your jello. But it can be done with patience.

You probably don't want to use this for mold making as it is not flexible. I'd suggest a casting silicon from smooth on.

Hi, sorry for slow response. It seems to be a rigid food grade plastic. If you have really strong hands you might be able to squeeze it. I store mine in the fridge, which means I need to let it come up to room temp to get it to pour out. Othewise you could use a table knife and scoop it out. For me it is no big deal, as the quality and concentration is very good.

Being plastic I don't see why not. Mine is in my tray of my toaster/convection oven.

I just tried two different batches of jello in these silicone molds with no luck. I could not get the jello out of the mold intact. Maybe someone knows a trick?

I've had that problem....use some olive oil or pam spray( very lightly) on the inside of the top and side mold pieces.......the jello should come out much easier and not break up ...hope this helps. Gail

I have used it with jello and it worked great for me :-) just make sure u leave the jello long enough to set.

Absolutely not! It is not a flimsy plastic. I was just telling someone the other day that this is such a wonderful appliance!!! So glad we got it!!! I make tons of sourdough bread for friends. I have used the same starter for about 25 years! Until a years or so ago, I was doing all the mixing by hand! This mixer is pretty awesome and I highly recommend it! It is heavy duty without the "heaviness' of an industrial appliance. I use it almost every week and have had zero problems!

Pliable plastic. Luckily the plastic is pretty thick, so it'll take some time for it to warp. But it can be slightly flimsy if you apply pressure onto the tip. But with some modifications you can make it so it won't bend as much.

I just pour it in, otherwise it wouldn't fit all the food. It's supposed to be food grade plastic, so I think its safe enough.

It's been answered already, but I'd like to add a note to this question. We dropped our blender "jar" once. It was at that point I became glad it is a strong, high quality plastic.
