Step 3Positive Preparation
Jello is very sticky as it sets - but things don't like sticking to it once set. So, you'll probably want a mold release to prevent the Jello from grabbing onto your positive. As I am going for "food grade" I'm using Chicken Poop.
Now, chicken poop does not come from the backside of any fowl. It's actually a brand similar to chap stick that uses soybean oil among other things. Technically, it's edible "lip junk." So smear it over your positive and rub it in.
Now it's time to place in your vessel. If your positive is to rest on the floor AND it floats -- you're probably going to want to use a dab of hot glue or other adhesive to keep it down. If not, you can build a stand with wood skewers or make a little suspension structure as not to interfere with the mold.
Hot glue being my temporary adhesive of choice, I fired up the manual hot glue applicator and secured my positive (an apple) in place.
