Carolyn:

Surgipath has a huge mold that is about 63x43 mm x15mm deep.  They also sell
a huge cassette to fit it.  I have had success using 2 side-by-side
embedding rings when using this mold to embed 2 large tissues.

We are having to process big blocks of prostate so I am trying to find molds
that are deeper than the normal Tissue-Tek molds. Can anyone help?
