Flower Pro Calla Lily & Tulip Leaf Silicone Mold & Veiner Set for Cake Decorating & Clay Crafts by Katy Sue Molds & Flower Pro Molds. Use with Fondant, Sugar Paste & Air Dry Clay

I thought it might be good to compare these 2 because I couldn't decide, so maybe this will help you. I also have usage tips below.FYI, I used a mix of modeling chocolate, tylose powder, and Massa Ticino fondant. The make-up bag photo is the MM zipper with the KS toggle:Katy Sue:This zipper is smaller and more delicate, which is both a plus and a minus. It would look more elegant on the cake, and I think it's probably big enough for most items, but it's significantly more temperamental. If you're a newbie to fondant molds, this is a hard one because of all the tiny teeth and the length/width ratio. It took quite a bit of work and pushing to get into all the nooks and crannies, so if you have difficulty with you hands (such as arthritis), this is not for you.It's open at one end, which looks really cute, but it isn't a big enough gap to be "revealing contents" if you're doing something like a make-up bag, so that makes it a little awkward for my use. You could easily just start your zipper at the closed section and not use the open section, but then you've got a really short segment for your project.There are 2 toggle options, which I really like, so you can go traditional or more decorative.This is 1/3 of the price (BIG bonus in my book). If you know Katy Sue products already, it's on par with their good quality. Thank you, Katy Sue!!Marvelous Molds:This is a bigger, chunkier mold. Consequently, it's much more forgiving and easier to work with. If you're not comfortable with molds or have dexterity issues, this is the mold for you.Because it's longer, it's more versatile.You can technically cut it down the middle and carve between the teeth, to create an open zipper, because the teeth are just rectangular, but it is incredibly tedious - 30 minutes and about 2 inches in, I abandoned ship.The toggle pull is really big - great if you're doing a bigger piece, but it's not scalable for smaller items. I ended up using the KS toggle on the MM zipper for my make-up bag (see photo).It's SO expensive! Marvelous Molds is consistently excellent quality, and I have a lot of their molds now, but I quail at paying for them every time.It's wider, so more versatile, because you can trim it down or use the whole width, as I did. The 2 rows of stitching on either side are a nice touch.Tips for use:-Use a very pliable paste/fondant/chocolate - otherwise you'll never get into all the tiny teeth.-Push, push, push way longer than you'd think you have to, so you get every detail.-Pop it in the freezer for 10ish minutes before removing from the mold(s).-Carefully pull back the sides of the mold, while leaving the fondant in place. This eliminates as much friction/grip as possible before you actually start removing.-Flip it over onto a table. PUSH the fondant out of the mold from the back of the mold, while slowly peeling the mold away - this way you won't stretch or break your piece.-Go slowly and and patiently.-Some people like to use a dusting cornstarch in molds first, to prevent sticking. I find that it's not necessary for me, but it might help you.Good luck! :)

This is a really high quality mold. I had a cheap version of this that just didn't work right. Well, this mold is so much better than that one! You can clearly see all the details in this one. Will but more from this brand.

Beautiful results using fondant, very easy to use. Great product!

I like how deep and precise the cut of the mold is. Makes for a perfect finished. Very pleased!!

I ordered this for someone who wanted an Alice and Wonderland themed cupcakes. I knew in the beginning of the movie, she goes through a lot of doors and thought the idea of it was adorable. So i got this and luster dust to make the items. I couldn't wait to try it out so i did this morning. After a bit of trial and error, i got it to work. Looked up some videos and figured it out.Overall i give this a 4 out 5 stars only due to the nature of the key is hard to get done. The locks are fairly simple in molding them but the key i have had issues with. Finally i found if you roll the fondant into a long log rather thick, and press it in the top of the key where the notchs are and work your way down to the handle it works a lot easier. Also CORNSTARCH is your best friend. I keep applying it to my fingers and as i pressed it in to the mold and found it stuck better in that and not on my hands.The mold itself is very easy to get the product out of and stays in place on the counter.I found it was steep for the price of it but do like that it easy to use for the most part. Worth the money for the idea i am doing, but wouldn't have spent it on myself.

Katy Sue molds don’t disappoint. Extremely easy to use and makes creating bark a breeze. Highly recommend.

Got this to use with resin and it was very easy to use. They are semetrical so if both sides of a project will be seen, you can attach the two halves together

I love the tiny details in this mould. There were no defects and they turned out beautiful. You do have to get the right amount of gumpaste and work it in if you don't want to have to trim the edges. I let mine sit in the mold overnight and popped them out and let the other side dry for a bit too before painting them. The mould is flexible and slightly stretchy which helps when removing the pieces but sturdy enough to hold its shape when you press in your gumpaste or fondant.
