Suitable for Food Grade applications (See Technical Bulletin) - Great for making baking molds and trays, ice trays, casting butter, chocolate, fondant and other applications used to produce foods.Shore 40A HardnessMix Ratio: 100A:10B by weight (requires digital gram scale)Pot Life: 30 minutes - Cure Time: 24 hoursAlso can be used for general mold making. Materials such as plasters, concrete, wax, low-melt metal alloys or resins (urethane, epoxy or polyester) can be poured into it.
Machining the chocolate directly is going to involve a lot of complexity.
For starters, you'll have to make your whole machine food safe. That means it will need to be sanitizable and your cutting bits will have to not leave any hazardous chemicals or metals behind.
Beyond this, you now face the challenge that chocolate has an extremely low melting point and is therefore likely to melt rather than cut. When I've seen people machine chocolate its typically done in a freezer for this reason.
A simpler solution might be to machine something like jewlers wax into a positive of what you want your chocolate to look like. Then cast the wax in a food-safe silicone.
Once you have that the silicone mold should be able to safely cast the chocolate, and should be reusable to boot.
Amazon of course

I agree with /u/redsnappa127 . The materials that make up the clone willy kit are standard life-casting materials. Search for molding alginate on amazon. You can get a pound of alginate for $15 http://amzn.com/B007PULSRM or you get get 4lbs from Smooth-on which is the company that professional body casters use for $32: http://amzn.com/B000QCM27Q or from smooth-on: http://www.smooth-on.com/Life-Casting-Alja-/c3_1185/index.html?catdepth=1
Then you need a platinum cured silicone which is the more expensive part $38: http://amzn.com/B00EOA25X2 or www.smooth-on.com/Silicone-Rubber-an/c2_1115_1131/index.html?catdepth=1
SmoothSil 940 is platinum cured and food safe so it should be safe to make into a dildo.
You just need a molding container and that would be easy to make out of an old water bottle, the 1L smart water bottles would be good as they are decently sized and smooth sided.
As /u/wenbobular said, you probably want food grade silicone. There are a few ways to go about making such a thing. If you're trying to make something like a jello mold, I'd invert the print and fill it with the silicone. If you want a press mold then the silicone would need to just be a thin coating on your plastic. That's going to be hard to achieve while keeping a sharp enough edge to cut your dough. Good luck!
This is what Smooth On makes for that. It's suggested you pull a vacuum so I haven't tried it yet.

Sorry I was unable to find a mold like that, the closest thing was a D20 icecube mold but even that is out of stock.
I did however find thisA kit to make your own
Here is a video on how to do it. You can also make a 1 part mold but that wont last nearly as long. and will look less nice. If you follow the edges of the dodecahedron for the mold haves you will have a near perfect result.
ah good catch. Do you have a preferred brand of food safe silicon molding? I found this guy but that's it
No, you can't melt silicon. First it can handle ridiculous temperatures, second you'd just get a goopy mess.
You need something like this
Has anyone tried to use silicone rubber to fix this? Would probably require someone making a mold from an intact Pebble 2 out of Sugru or a 3D printer then pouring the silicone rubber material into the mold. The only thing is that I'm not sure how you could 'glue' the new buttons onto the side of the watch. Here's the link to the silicone material: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00EOA25X2/
