Choosing the Material for Cake Molds
Steel, silicone, silicone-coated fiberglass… among all these materials, it’s easy to get confused. Here’s a reminder of the uses of each:
- Silicone molds are probably the utensils that allow the greatest variety of different uses. In fact, a wide range of creations is possible with Maé Innovation® silicone molds. Travel cakes, tarts & tartlets, cakes, sugar decorations, candies, muffins… Whether you are a pastry professional or a savory chef, silicone molds offer you an immense choice of sizes and shapes for each of your creations.
- Fiberglass molds are a significant asset in making your breads & choux pastries. Our Fibermaé range is made of perforated and silicone-coated fiberglass, allowing moisture to escape during baking to achieve a crispy exterior and a soft interior. They will accompany you in making milk bread, eclairs, tartlets, or even brioches.
- Aluminized steel molds will allow you to make your brioches, sandwich loaves & special breads. Hitch or individual molds, our steel molds allow easy demolding and even baking thanks to their non-stick coating with fluorinated resin.
Choosing the Size of the Cake Mold
Maé Innovation molds are classified into 3 main categories: individual silicone molds, sharing silicone molds, and mini silicone molds.
- Individual molds allow you to make individual and delicious pastries and cakes such as madeleines, muffins, financiers, and many other creations.
- Sharing molds are suitable for more generous preparations for several people. Our sharing molds generally have only one cavity. Sharing molds for cake, giant petit beurre mold, or even sharing madeleine mold, in which many shared creations are possible.
- Mini molds are ideal for preparing petits fours or sweet and savory bite-sized treats, including mini financiers, mini canelés, mini madeleines, or even mini savarins.
