Couldn't you take a straw or something of the desired size, wrap it in aluminum foil and pull it out. You would have to make sure you close off one end so it doesn't drain out. This would give you the shape and size you want and you would have a little mold. Just make as many as you need, find something to stand them up in the oven (block of wood with holes drilled in it) and bake. After they cool, unwrap the foil and you have your sticks. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

This is an interesting idea, but the foil tube (even multiple layers) may not stand up to the extremly hot sugar liquid I will be pouring in. Also, the tubes don't have to go into the oven to bake just sit to allow the mixture to harden and come to room temperature.
