Custom Chocolate Mold DIY Part 1: What Is a Mold Blank?
A mold blank is the positive master object — the physical shape you want your chocolate to take. The silicone poured around it in Part 2 picks up every surface detail, creating the negative cavity you pour chocolate into. For this custom chocolate mold diy part 1 project the blank is a 10×5 cm rectangular bar with “420” subtracted from the face — the perfect shape for infused cannabis chocolate bars.
How to Make Custom Chocolate Molds: 9-Step 3D Design
Here is how to make custom chocolate molds starting from scratch in Cinema 4D. The same technique works in Blender (free) or any other 3D app that supports volumetric modeling:

- Create a Rectangular Spline — width 100 mm, height 50 mm. Enable corner rounding and set radius to 7 mm for a classic candy bar edge.
- Apply an Extrude to the spline — set depth to 10 mm (1 cm).
- Create a Text Spline — type “420”, set height to 50 mm. Center it on the rectangle using Tools → Arrange Objects → Center.
- Apply a second Extrude to the text — set depth to 5 mm.
- Create a Volume Builder. Drag the rectangle extrude in as the base layer (Union) and the text extrude in above it set to . This hollows the “420” from the bar face.
