6 Inch Zip Silicone Mould - Zipper Track, Open Section and Pulls for Fondant, Gum Paste, Clay, Resin and Candle Making

The one detail that sells a whole novelty cake. A zip running across fondant is what makes a pencil case cake, a handbag cake, a suitcase or a jacket read instantly as the real object - and hand-cutting those teeth is fiddly, slow work that never comes out even. This mould gives you the full run in one press. It carries a 6 inch closed zip track with individually defined teeth, an open V-section where the zip parts, and two separate pulls with rings so you can position the slider wherever the design needs it - closed at one end, half open, or pulled right back. Because the teeth are moulded rather than cut, they come out identical along the whole length, which is exactly what the eye checks on a zip. Food grade silicone, flexible and non-stick, so fondant and gum paste release cleanly without tearing the fine teeth, and it holds detail in the small parts where cheaper moulds go soft. It is safe for freezer, fridge, microwave and oven and is dishwasher safe. Beyond cakes it works with polymer clay, resin, soap, wax and candles, cold porcelain and craft compounds - the zip motif is popular in jewellery and keyring work as well as sugarcraft. Rinse in warm water and air dry; no greasing needed.
