Igloo Log Mold

The Silikomart Igloo log mold creates a Christmas log shaped like an igloo, made entirely of silicone. The same mold hides a surprise: by flipping it, it can be used to pour 3 chocolate penguins to decorate the log.

One mold therefore creates the igloo and its 3 penguins. With a capacity of 1175 ml and dimensions 234 x 115 mm, height 75 mm, it is suitable for frozen desserts as well as chilled mousses. Its flexibility ensures a clean unmolding of the brick relief.
