I think dullard nailed it. But how are you going to keep the titanium from adhereing to the breakable sphere? I think you'd end up with chunks from the sphere in your titanium cube. I don't think it'd be worth the trouble to do such a thing, lol. Makes for an interesting question though. While the sucker is molten you could have a tube inserted and put a bubble of air or some other gas in the center maybe too. That would be hard to make a perfect sphere though I would think.

Using wax, make an original mold of each two halves of the cube with required internal shape. Join two halves together and make a loss wax casting.
