Why choose a copper mold rather than silicone for cannelés?

Copper is a much better heat conductor than silicone. It allows immediate thermal transfer to the batter, essential for creating the caramelized, crispy crust that defines the true Bordeaux cannelé.

Should beeswax be used with these molds?

Using beeswax mixed with butter is the traditional method. It produces a shinier, crispier crust and provides extra protection to the tinning during unmolding.

How do I know when the tinning of my mold is worn out?

The tinning should be redone if the pink copper appears inside the mold over a large area. For normal home use, quality tinning lasts many years.

Why not put copper molds in the dishwasher?

Dishwashers use very harsh detergents and temperatures that attack the tin and dull the copper. Simply wiping or gently hand washing preserves the longevity of your utensils.

Patisse - Copper molds

Tinned Copper Canelé Mold

Caramelized crust and soft center, in three diameters

Tinned copper canelé mold, chosen for the contrast that defines Bordeaux canelés: a caramelized, crisp crust around a soft center. Copper's high conductivity distributes heat quickly and evenly, caramelizing the sugars consistently without hot spots. The tinned interior ensures safe food contact and easy release.

Features

Available diameters: 35 / 45 / 55 mm

Use

Season the mold before the first bake: coat the inside with melted butter and beeswax, heat in a hot oven for a few minutes, then wipe clean
Coat the cavities with this mixture before each batch
Fill with rested canelé batter, then bake in a very hot oven to sear the crust before lowering the temperature
Unmold the canelés while still hot to preserve their crispness

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, our advice

Why choose copper for canelés?

Its conductivity distributes heat quickly and evenly, creating the thick, caramelized crust typical of Bordeaux canelés, which is difficult to achieve with a less conductive mold.

Should the mold be seasoned before use?

Yes. Seasoning with butter and wax before first use protects the tin coating and improves release from the very first batches.

Can it go in the dishwasher?

No. Tinned copper must be washed by hand and dried immediately. Dishwashers and harsh products damage the tin coating and tarnish the copper.
