The present disclosure is directed to a molded reflective structure for a light source, which may be a light-emitting diode ("LED"). The structure includes a reflector which defines a cavity therein. The cavity is surrounded by at least one reflective side wall, and has a greatest dimension of less than about 50 mm. The at least one reflective side wall further has an initial reflectance at 460 nm of greater than about 85% and an initial whiteness index of greater than about 80. The reflector is made from a thermoplastic polymer composition that contains a material such that the at least one reflective side wall absorbs light in the ultraviolet and violet region of the electromagnetic spectrum and re-emits light in the blue region.
