All About the White CacaoXS Mold (Tips & Tricks)
Why choose a white mold rather than a colored one? White silicone is especially appreciated by professional pastry chefs because it allows immediate visibility to check if the mixture is evenly distributed in all corners of the mold. It ensures precision for complex shapes like the pod, where air bubbles could spoil the relief.
How to prevent white silicone from staining over time? Some strong colorants (like red or black) or chocolate fats can leave marks. To maintain the whiteness of your mold, we recommend washing with very hot soapy water after each use. For persistent stains, placing it in the oven at 100°C for a few minutes can sometimes "burn off" pigment residues.
Is it necessary to grease this mold for baking? No, Silikomart’s platinum silicone is naturally non-stick. For mini cakes, wait until they cool slightly before unmolding for perfect detail sharpness.
