Marvelous Molds Silicone Mold
Marvelous Fluted Simpress Mold
Vertical Greek column-style fluting in Simpress, for an architectural-looking cake.
The Marvelous Molds Simpress Fluted mold imprints vertical fluting with a single press, creating a column-inspired architectural look. Made from flexible, food-grade silicone in the United States, it is pressed onto a sheet of sugar paste, marzipan, or fondant that has already been placed on the cake.

Instructions for use
- Roll out the sugar paste or marzipan into an even sheet 3 to 4 mm thick and place it over the cake, which has already been covered.
- Apply the mold to the still-soft panel and press firmly, by hand or with a rolling pin, to transfer the pattern across the entire surface in one go.
- Peel the mold away from one edge without sliding the paste panel, so you don't flatten the relief.
- Trim the edges with a pastry wheel once the pattern has been imprinted, before the paste dries.
Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
In which direction should I apply the mold to the cake?
Always apply it in the vertical direction of the flutes to recreate the column effect; a horizontal direction would detract from the pattern.
Is this pattern suitable for an already textured cake?
No, it works best on a smooth, simple surface. On an already textured background, the flutes are hard to make out.
What finish accentuates the Greek column effect?
Once the paste has dried, dusting the tops of the flutes with gold or pearlescent ivory using a dry brush accentuates the architectural relief.
