A submount wafer, having mounted on it an array of LEDs with a phosphor layer, is positioned with respect to a mold having an array of indentions. A mixture of silicone and 10%-50%, by weight, TiO2, is dispensed between the wafer and the indentions, creating a molded substantially reflective material. The molded mixture forms a reflective wall covering the sidewalls of the LED. The reflective material is then cured, and the submount wafer is separated from the mold such that the reflective material covering the sidewalls contains light emitted from the LED. The submount wafer is then diced. A piece (e.g., a reflector, support bracket, etc.) may then be affixed to the submount so the LED protrudes through a center hole in the piece. The inner edge of the piece is easily formed so that it is located at any height above or below the top surface of the LED.
