[Sca-cooks] Poured sugar

[kattratt]

I have actually made some pretty darned acurate molds using aluminum 
foil.  (Just fold it until it looked like the shape I was recreating in 
the first case or Creating in the other case.) However I will warn you 
about this method!!!! Use a generous amount of Pam or oil. (If you don't 
the poured sugar is damn near impossible to get of the foil or vice versa)  
Other places to get molds... Oh Wow I just thought of the coolest 
thing.....hehehehehe must look for a Metal, Lamb Cake form.
Antiques stores are good places (duh), Flea Markets or Yard Sales. 
 Regardless I would recommend metal molds!!!!  Having been burned by the 
Molten Lava that is Poured sugar... believe me when I say that you want 
a mold that will withstand high heat.
