Does anyone know of any giant bar moulds available? When I say giant I mean a single bar larger than 12 inches or so.

Thanks.

Contact Tomric Plastics - they have a number of big bars and can certainly make you what you want if they don't have it.

We auctioned off a giant chocolate bar as a fundraiser for an event. I found a storage container with a bottom surface that resembled the surface of an Aero Bar, cleaned it really well, polished it up and used that. Used an entire 11 lb. block of Callebaut for it. Wrapped it in gold foil and made a custom paper outer sleeve so it looked like a giant candy bar and put it on display where the tickets were being sold. It did really well. I realize that's not what you have in mind but it was a lot of fun so I thought I'd mention it anyway. :biggrin:

Make your own. Very easy.

Get food grade molding silicone rubber and find a pattern you like. Mix the two part compound, next day you got your mold.
