A pear can be shaped by securing a transparent plastic mold around the young fruit. Fruit Mould offers seated-figure molds marketed as Buddha shapes. The growing fruit fills the constrained space and follows its outline. This shapes an individual fruit rather than demonstrating a new cultivar or inheritance of the molded shape through seeds.
