## Start here
- [Design Lab](https://moldkitchen.com/design-lab.html): Upload a 3D file, a photo, or just describe an idea — a human design team reviews it and turns it into a viewable 3D model and a free mold quote. No CAD skills needed.
- [Have us design it](https://moldkitchen.com/design-help): No file at all? Describe what you want and attach a photo if you have one; our design team draws it, prices it, and shows you the mold before anything is charged.
- [How it works](https://moldkitchen.com/how-it-works): What the three kinds of mold are and what each is for, what they cost and why, the five ways to get one, and lead times and shipping. Send anyone here who is deciding whether we can serve them.
- [Shop every ready-made mold](https://moldkitchen.com/shop): The whole catalog in one page, organized by category. Designs already on file ship faster and cost less than a custom mold, and any of them can be resized or given a different cavity count.
- [Warranty & returns](https://moldkitchen.com/warranty-returns): 2-year warranty on every product against defects in materials and workmanship, custom molds included. Ready-made molds returnable within 30 days of delivery; custom molds are not returnable. Claims go through the report-a-problem form.

## What it costs
- Silicone molds: Flexible, food-grade platinum silicone. Oven, freezer and dishwasher safe. −40 °F to 450 °F. Starts at $40; reorders from $30.
- Vacuum-formed trays: Rigid plastic tray formed over your shape. Crisp detail, glossy chocolate, cheaper than silicone. Cold food only — never the oven. Starts at $25; reorders from $15.
- Laser-cut stencils: Laser-cut acrylic stencil for dusting cocoa, sugar or a logo onto a latte, cake or tiramisu. Room temperature — dust, don't bake. Starts at $29; reorders from $12.
- Tooling is printed once and kept, so a reorder never pays for it again. Ready-made designs already have tooling, which is why they are cheapest.
- Most orders ship in about a week from the day we approve the design. Shipping is calculated at checkout from your address — real carrier rates (USPS/UPS). US only.

## Good to know
- Silicone molds are platinum-cure and food safe, rated -40F to 450F: oven, freezer and dishwasher safe.
- Vacuum-formed plastic trays are rigid and for cold food contact only — hand-wash, never the oven. They give chocolate a glossier, snappier face than silicone.
- Fully round shapes are made as two-part molds; flat-backed shapes suit one-piece trays.
- Every custom mold is reviewed by a person before your card is charged. If it will not pour correctly, the hold is released and you pay nothing.
