Pair of Long Twisted Silicone Candle Molds — 3D Spiral Pillar Molds
Product description
What you receive: a set of two twisted pillar silicone molds. When filled and finished the two pieces measure approximately 0.94 x 0.94 x 7.36 inches and 0.78 x 0.78 x 7.44 inches respectively.
Material and build: the molds are made from soft, food‑safe grade silicone that is both sturdy and elastic. Their semi‑translucent finish allows you to see the contents as they set so you can judge layers and fill levels. The inner surface is smooth to help produce sharp detail and an even exterior finish.
How to use: position your wick or insert, pour in the chosen casting medium (wax, beeswax, soap base, resin, chocolate, frozen water for ice, or clay slip), allow it to cool or cure fully, then flex the silicone to remove the finished piece. The flexibility eliminates the need for trimming or sanding at the edges in most cases.
Versatility: suitable for aromatherapy and pillar candles, handmade soaps, wax and beeswax creations, resin art and epoxy casting, edible uses like chocolate, and cold casting with clay. Finished items make attractive decorations for home, shop displays, weddings, parties, restaurants and more.
Care and cautions: the molds are reusable and easy to wash by hand. Avoid applying a direct torch or heat gun while resin is inside the mold and do not expose the silicone to strong corrosive chemicals which can damage the surface and cause release issues. Allow for slight dimension variance due to manual measurement.
After‑sales: if you encounter a quality problem or an issue with the product, please reach out to the seller for assistance and a satisfactory resolution.
Pros
- Translucent silicone for easy monitoring
- Reusable and flexible for clean removal
- Detailed spiral pattern for decorative finishes
Cons
- Walls can be too flexible when clamped
- Some shapes have tight spots for wick placement
- Not fully rigid for heavy-duty closure methods
VerdictThese twin twisted silicone molds are a practical choice for makers who want decorative pillar shapes. They come in two slim lengths with translucent walls that help you monitor the pour. The silicone is flexible and reusable, giving clean releases for many materials, though very light or flimsy clamping can be a nuisance. Good for candles, soap, resin, chocolate and clay, they’re especially handy

Good detail, a little snug to demold
Satisfied with the sculpted detail. Once fully hardened they can be a bit tight to remove, but it’s doable with care.

Adorable and functional mold
Purchased for my daughter who hand-pours wax candles. The size is practical, cleanup is simple, and finished pieces pop out cleanly. Great for multi-color and holiday orders.

Too bendy for secure molding
The molds are floppy and hard to keep tightly closed; they bend under strong bands, making use frustrating despite the attractive design.

Crisp poinsettia impressions
Creates sharp poinsettia patterns in resin. Would be ideal if the molds were clear to work with UV resin curing.

Fun multi-layered candles
A fun family project — layered wax produced beautiful drips and colors. Secure the mold while it sets and use compatible wax and wicks for best burning.

Lovely beeswax results
Very straightforward to use and my beeswax pillars turned out beautifully. One of the tighter spirals made wick placement fiddly, otherwise easy.
