Does this mold create smooth hearts, or are there designs on the front when the candies are completed?

both sides are flat. I use them to make gummie candies, and they work great

They are smooth. I used them for mini brownies and it was like a mini muffin pan.

the custom trays, no it is not hard to make the mold. the cheaper trays that come with the set, they are not hard to mold but they don't work nearly as well as the custom trays. not a tight fit and much too big for my mouth, they were uncomfortable. it's worth the price to get the custom. i did see a quick change, like 3 shades in the first week probably. it kind of plateaued a bit after that but definitely worked.

You can use the other shape cutter as rice crispie treat mold, and use the inner face piece as stencil for sprinkle. Please check out Cutezcute Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=491893687550836&set=pb.246604052079802.-2207520000.1375817368.&type=3&theater

Yes, I've never had any issues with it. Are you making sure to let it warm up? It does need to be turned on for about 5 minutes prior to putting the candy into into it, then it only takes a few moments before it starts spinning candy. Don't get me wrong, you don't get a lot. It's not like cotton candy at the fair, but you can always put two candies in and then after they spin out, put two more in and make a larger one.

I believe it always has some texture to it. There are different patterns available. I've never seen smooth.

I only used Wilton candy melts and I didn't have a problem. It did take a little more time for the white and colored melts to melt than the chocolate ones. They also seem to set a little faster.

I used it to make both chocolate and poured sugar lollies, but the poured sugar does cloud the plastic (but not distort it). I made the poured sugar first and then the chocolate ones. Both turned out fine. You should fill to the VERY top though, because the stick placement is kind of high in the back of the lolly.

It's just one mold that makes half-spheres. I did have to order another one when I discovered this. They don't connect perfectly, so you might find you need to clamp them together while the bath bombs dry (I've had marginal success using bulldog clips) Cheers!

Hey PT, I bought these diamond molds specifically for making truffles. This mold is perfect. The size is good and my truffles looked store bought. They have always tasted good but this is the first time they have looked so good. Let me know how it turns out.Teresa

Yes I purchased this and the other refills for my grandson. If you have the box the molds are displayed on the side. 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!!!

You smooth it as best you can when you are done kneading and shaping the loaf. Mine came out fairly smooth but in my opinion it's kind like wrinkles on a face-- gives it character and individuality. And thi EVERYONE knows it wasn't mass produced. :-)

The exterior of the glasses starts smooth at the top. The lines on the glasses intersect 3 times, after the first intersection the lines become slightly more pronounced (you can't tell looking at them, but I've been holding one for the last 5 minutes and you can deff feel them around the glass if you start at the top and drag your hand down) creating these narrow diamonds all around the glass in the middle/bottom, changing the glass from a circle at the top to whatever the name is for a 12 sided pretend circle at the bottom. So yes the glasses are smooth, but the design of the glass alters its shape as it goes down providing terrible grip at the top, and a more secure grip in the middle and bottom of the glass. I also have incredibly small hands, (I've met 10 year olds with bigger hands and my ring size is 4) that being said I have no problem holding onto these Hope that helps!

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.

I'm not 100% sure! but I believe 1 batch of hard candy goes in 2-3 molds. With these, I like to pour them, let them cool them use water and put them back to back to make large jolly rancher-esque candies.

I really don't know, as I have never made hard candy lollipops. These are clear plastic, and fairly sturdy. What is specific to hard candy molds so that I may better answer your question?
