I'm planning a party that will require home made hard candy "straws" or "sticks". I need to design a custom mold that looks like the picture below, at least 25 valleys wide with a 15 inch length. It will need to be metal because I will be making the straws with 300+ degree sugar solution and I don't want the material to melt. The idea is to pour the solution into the depressions and allow to cool.
I need material suggestions as well as suggestions on what kinds of tools to use. The metal has to be plyable enough to manipulate by hand because I don't have access to any machinery.
