Having very allergic dd. I am very tempted on trying to melt choc and buy some molds this coming easter. Anyone have any sugestions/advice. Have I anything to worry about buying silicone molds? Dd is allergic to lots of things and has a risk of latex allergy due to kiwi and bannana allergies. Is silicone ok or would you stick to the metal looking molds. Anyone have any tips,advice or good websites?

I bought plastic moulds from Lakeland last year

not used them yet to be bale to tell you if they come out ok, but Ithink they would be pretty safe!

I bought Dr oetker mould from Tescos last year to make an egg for DD who has a dairy allergy. Was made of plastic (easily washable) and i used it carefully and will probably use it again this year. Good thing is it comes with instructions so i just followed those while eating the ordinary chocolate they provided with it!!

Wipe inside of mould with a bit of cotton wool dipped in cornflour before you start - for some reason it helps the egg come out neatly.

Set aside plenty of time, and don't be tempted to make the layers too thick - make each one thinnish and allow to set before starting the next one. Also make sure the edges are reasonably thick, or they crumble when you take them out.
