I currently don't have the pills made but I should have what I need by Friday to finally get things going. Otherwise, here's the plan:
First I need something edible to make the pills out of. Here's what I plan on using:
The first pic is isomalt which is to be melted down and made into pills. The second pic is of clear mints that I found and they're British mints so they will take a while to get to me but they will also be melted down. I have two different ones because I don't know which would work better but also because of the downfalls of either one. Some people might like mint so they wouldn't want isomalt, plus isomalt is a sugar substitute and is only supposed to be consumed in small amounts or else your stomach will start to hurt. But, someone might be allergic to mint or maybe they just don't like mint or something to then there is isomalt.
Next, I need something to pour them into to make the shape of the pill. Now this was tricky, I don't know how, nor do I have the materials necessary, to make molds. So instead I have to improvise. So here's what I did:
I found these things at Home Depot
And in the same area, I also found a few of these plastic things but I'm not sure what they're called
Now with the black circles, they had a metal thing in them which I took out, it took a little bit of cutting though
Next was the hardest part which could take up to an hour to do, I had to take the plastic circles and try to put it where the metal circle was. I had to do a little more cutting but I didn't want to cut too much or else that would be nothing at the bottom to hold them in place
There might be easier ways of doing it like cutting the clear circle into a different shape to make it go in easier.
I already have three made. Here is the bottom of them:
And the top:
The final step would be to thoroughly clean the makeshift molds and pour the mint and isomalt into the top and let it harden then take them out and repeat until I'm out of the mint and isomalt.
Now here's the sucky thing, because it's so difficult to make the "molds" and would take forever to make a lot of them, it's going to take a long time to cast all of the pills, but I hope it will be worth it when I'm done
