I've been looking to build very large molds, big enough to hold 50 - 100 bear each. They have to be rugged, simple and inexpensive. After searching for *days*, I think I found a winner. It's not perfect but hey, what is?
It's fiberglass "C" channel electrical conduit. I did a little math and the measurements come out to (finished bar size) 3-1/8" wide and 2-1/8" tall. It costs $49 for a 6 foot length.

I then took a bar and cut it to size (pic below). The ruler and soda can are to show size. My scale is at the shop but I'm guessing it's around 3.5 ounce. Let me know what you think.
