  1. I made these. The link to the Round Silicone mold didn’t work, so I am now seeing that I picked a bigger sized mold than you used. It was definitely more difficult than I anticipated to get the two halves together correctly and mine look a lot worse than yours came out, but I’m sure that the nieces and nephews who receive them won’t care what they look like, just what they taste like. 🙂
