Mold Making
 
I have my father's Easter Rabbit molds, but they need either some repair,
or to be made into plastic molds. Does anyone know where theis can be done?
The molds are from 18 inches (holds 10 pounds of solid chocolate) to two
inches.

Any info would be helpful

I don't know anything about refurbishing metal molds. There is a kind of
silicone mold-making stuff that you might be able to use. I've never used
it, and don't know how practical it is for items of this size or type, but
you can check it out and/or buy it at www.sugarcraft.com

I would try to find a plastics fabricator- if that's the proper term

There is a company on the net which deals with rubber molds and such.
I think it is the rubber chef. rubberchef.com maybe?

They help the chefs on the food tc challenges do those sugar molds,
and they might be able to get something where you can fill one of your
molds with rubber and then pour a plastic over it to create a plastic
mould.

Is it mould or mold? I can never remember

It depends whether you are British (mould) or American (mold). I don't know
where Canadians and Australians et al come down on the u-or-no-u spelling
issue.
