Marvelous Mold - Moroccan Lattice Onlay
Raised Moroccan zellige-style lattice
The Moroccan Lattice Onlay silicone mold by Marvelous Molds creates a geometric lattice pattern inspired by Moroccan zellige tiles. Unlike a Simpress mold, an onlay is applied flat directly to an already smooth surface, without needing to cover an entire tier.
It can be used with sugar paste, marzipan, fondant, gum paste, or tempered chocolate, and is particularly suited to oriental-themed wedding cakes or creations in a gold and deep-blue palette.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between an Onlay mold and a Simpress mold?
An onlay is applied flat to an already smooth surface, like an added decorative plaque, whereas a Simpress is pressed directly onto the paste to texture an entire tier.
What paste thickness gives the best relief for this pattern?
A thickness of approximately 3 mm produces a well-defined lattice without making the plaque fragile during demolding.
Is this mold suitable for an oriental-themed wedding cake?
Yes, this is one of its main uses: the Moroccan lattice pattern works particularly well in a gold or cobalt-blue palette on oriental-themed creations.
