The Drop on Drape Sundae Dish Mold Set from Creative Paradise is a two-mold slumping set for shaping fused glass into a footed sundae dish. The set includes the GM94 Small Plate Ring and the GM95 Foot Drape, which work together in a single firing. A single pre-fused glass blank is placed over the plate ring with the foot drape positioned below, and as the glass softens it drops through the ring opening and drapes onto the foot form by gravity.
The GM94 Small Plate Ring has an overall diameter of 6 inches with a 3 inch center opening. The GM95 Foot Drape measures 6.5 inches in diameter and 3.75 inches tall. Both molds are ceramic, COE agnostic, and reusable across many firings when prepped and cared for properly.
What does the Drop on Drape Sundae Dish Mold Set make?
It shapes a footed glass sundae dish using two molds in a single firing. A pre-fused glass blank rests on the GM94 Small Plate Ring and, as it heats, drops through the ring opening onto the GM95 Foot Drape below, forming the dish and its raised foot in one piece.
How do the two molds work together?
The GM95 Foot Drape sits on the kiln shelf with the GM94 Small Plate Ring positioned above it, and a single pre-fused glass blank is placed over the ring. Fired on a slump schedule, the softening glass drops through the ring opening and drapes onto the foot form, producing the complete footed dish in one firing.
What size glass blank do I use?
A single layer of fused glass is recommended. The GM94 spans 6 inches across with a 3 inch center opening, and the GM95 is 6.5 inches in diameter and 3.75 inches tall. Size your blank to span the plate ring and test a first run to confirm fit.
What COE glass works with these molds?
Any COE. Ceramic slumping molds are COE agnostic, so the same set works with COE96, COE90, or other fusible glass. Match your firing schedule to the glass you are using.
How do I prep the molds before slumping?
Coat each mold with a boron nitride mold primer or kiln wash and let it dry completely before placing glass. Re-coat as needed between firings.

Working Notes
These are guidelines, not guarantees. Every kiln fires a little differently, so test a small run first when the result matters and follow a slumping schedule suited to your glass and kiln.
- Prime each mold with a boron nitride mold primer such as ZYP Boron Nitride Mold Primer, or a kiln wash such as Hotline Primo Primer, and let it dry completely before placing glass so the glass does not stick.
- Set the GM95 Foot Drape on the kiln shelf, position the GM94 Small Plate Ring above it, and place a single layer of pre-fused glass over the ring. The GM94 has a 3 inch center opening within a 6 inch form; the GM95 is 6.5 inches across and 3.75 inches tall.
- Both molds are COE agnostic. Use a slump schedule matched to your glass, adjusting the final anneal soak for your COE.
- Let the kiln cool fully before removing the slumped piece. Re-coat each mold with primer as needed between firings.
- The Slide Hi Temp brand separator is not recommended with these molds.
