    I see how old this is but I clicked on it so someone else might. I've been through these struggles myself and found the best way to get them out of molds intact is to wait overnight.

    I tried making candy a couple of years ago, I bought molds, cooked, cooled and stirred and after a few tries got the batch into the molds before it hardened, but then tasting them they had a rubber taste. How do you get past that?

    We always boils new molds in water with baking soda before using.
