Patissland Tip: to recreate Cédric Grolet's signature finish, the secret lies in combining two finishes: a shiny orange mirror glaze as the base, then a light red velvet spray airbrushed on the tip and shadows of the fruit. This two-step technique is what sets a "pretty mango" apart from a "Grolet mango."
Expert tips for mastering your Pavoflex mangoes
- Texture: use a light mousse (mango-passion or coconut) and a fluid insert at the dessert’s core to simulate the juiciness of ripe fruit.
- Unmolding: deep freezing is essential, ideally in a blast chiller at -40°C. The non-stick property of Pavoflex silicone allows the mold to be removed "like a skin."
- Flocking: to recreate the mango skin, use a yellow and red velvet spray gradient with an airbrush. The powdery effect enhances realism and hides any micro air bubbles.
- Storage: spray the velvet and serve within 12 hours for optimal visual effect.

What is the difference between the Pavoflex Cédric Grolet and the Silikomart Mango?
The Pavoflex Cédric Grolet (PX43104) offers 12 cavities of 95 ml on a GN 1/1 plate, designed for professional kitchens, with a "star chef" design signature and extended thermal resistance (-40 to +280°C). The Silikomart Mango offers 6 cavities of 130 ml, more versatile and accessible, with a larger individual dessert size. Pavoflex is the reference for "schools and chefs," Silikomart is the price/size compromise for small and medium productions.
What is the volume of each cavity in the Pavoflex Mango?

Is the mold oven and blast chiller safe?
Yes, its thermal range from -40°C to +280°C is one of the widest on the market. It goes seamlessly from the blast chiller (-40°C) to a conventional oven or microwave (+280°C) without any deformation. This is one of the strengths of Pavoni Platinum silicone, superior to standard silicones.
How to successfully make a signature Cédric Grolet mango trompe-l'œil?
Three keys: a light mango-passion or coconut mousse with a fluid insert for juiciness, freezing at -40°C in a blast chiller before unmolding, and a two-step finish — shiny orange mirror glaze as the base, then a light red velvet spray targeted with an airbrush on the tip and shadows of the fruit. This two-step technique is Grolet's visual signature.
Why is a Pavoni Cédric Grolet mold more expensive than others?
The premium positioning of the Pavoflex Cédric Grolet comes from several factors: exclusive design sculpted with the chef, 100% liquid Platinum silicone of superior quality, professional GN 1/1 size for laboratories, extended thermal resistance, Italian manufacturing. It is the reference tool for pastry schools and starred chefs, which justifies its positioning.
Which finish gives the best ripe mango effect by Cédric Grolet?
The chef's signature technique combines two finishes: a shiny orange mirror glaze as the base, then a light red velvet spray applied with an airbrush targeted on the fruit's tip and natural shadows. This layering creates the ultra-realistic ripe fruit look that made it famous. The velvet spray alone gives a more matte and contemporary finish.
Is the Pavoflex Mango mold dishwasher safe?
Yes, it is dishwasher safe. However, hand washing with warm soapy water significantly extends the life of the Platinum silicone and preserves the fine details of the molding. Avoid abrasive products and scrubbing sponges.
How long can a mango entremet be stored?
A finished mango entremet can be kept for 24 to 48 hours in the refrigerator after thawing, or up to 2 weeks in the freezer before finishing. Acidic coulis made from fresh mango may slightly discolor the glaze after 24 hours: spray the velvet and serve within 12 hours for optimal visual effect.
Is this mold suitable for schools and CAP pastry programs?
Yes, it is one of the reference molds used in CAP pastry training, BTM, and private schools (Ferrandi, ENSP, Bellouet, etc.). The GN 1/1 size, the chef's signature, and the Pavoni Platinum quality make it a training investment that serves throughout your professional life.
