Ice Cream Silicone Mould | 3 Cavity | 22.5x10.8cm | White - Concrete & Resin

Cast three different ice cream shapes from one flexible sheet, a scoop cone, an ice lolly on a stick and a soft serve swirl. Each cavity carries moulded surface detail, the waffle texture on the cones and the drip line on the lolly, so a plain pour comes out looking finished without any carving. The sheet measures 22.5 x 10.8 cm with cavities about 14 mm deep, which suits fridge magnets, keyring charms and small shelf pieces rather than thick blocks.

Specifications

Ideal For

• Concrete and jesmonite makers building small decor pieces
• Resin artists making magnets, charms and keyrings
• Small business sellers producing a repeatable summer range
• Kids craft sessions using plaster of Paris, with adult supervision
• Anyone wanting three coordinated shapes from one mould

• Make plaster shapes for children to paint
• Build a summer themed shelf display or a shop window prop

Compatibility

Works with: concrete and cement mixes, epoxy resin, UV resin, plaster of Paris and candle wax.

Pairs well with: mica pigment powder, for tinting a concrete or resin pour before it goes into the cavity.

Not suitable for: food use, since no food-grade rating is stated for this mould; and deep casting, since the cavities are only about 14 mm deep.

Before You Buy

• The cavities are about 14 mm deep. These are flat backed shapes, not three dimensional figures.
• The mould is supplied on its own. Concrete, resin, plaster and colourants are all sold separately.
• No food-grade rating is stated for this mould, so keep it to craft materials.
• The lolly cavity includes the stick as part of the shape, so it casts as one solid piece.

How to Use

1. Sit the mould on a flat rigid board or a tray so it cannot flex once filled.
2. Mix your material and tint it before pouring, since you cannot stir it in the cavity.
3. Pour slowly into the deepest part of each cavity and let it spread.
4. Tap the board on the table to bring trapped air bubbles to the surface.
5. Level the back with a scraper so the finished piece sits flat.
6. Leave to set fully, then flex the sides outward and push the piece out from the back.

Frequently Asked Questions

How big are the finished shapes?
The scoop cone casts at 6.5 x 8.1 cm, the ice lolly at 6.1 x 9 cm and the soft serve cone at 6 x 8.7 cm, all about 14 mm thick.

Can I use this for resin as well as concrete?
Yes. The same silicone works for epoxy resin, UV resin, plaster of Paris and wax, as well as the concrete and cement mixes the mould is named for.

How is this different from the 8 cavity animal mould?
This one has three larger ice cream shapes on a 22.5 x 10.8 cm sheet. The animal mould packs eight smaller designs onto a 28 x 18 cm sheet, so it suits batching rather than statement pieces.

How do I get the piece out without breaking it?
Let it cure fully, then flex the silicone away from the edges all round before pushing from the back. Rushing a part cured concrete cast is the usual cause of a snapped cone tip.
