fortune cookies, hearts

I recently purchased two silicone molds - one in the shape of fortune cookies and another in the shape of hearts. Being food grade silicone, they can sustain temperatures from below freezing up to 230 C (446 F), meaning that they are quite versatile.

I can already imagine using these trays to experiment with different techniques, from making ice to candy to cookies. I'm curious as to how well they will hold up and whether they are effective at fulfilling all their potential/advertised purposes.  I have never worked with silicone molds before, much less kitchenware from a company that focuses its production on fast fashion! We'll see. In the meantime, look out for some interestingly-shaped food.

Who knew that Forever21 made kitchenware?
Of course, any ideas on how to use these molds are very much welcome.
