Non-stick high hinged mould with removable bottom 12cm

Why choose a hinged mold?

The springform pan, also known as the round cake tin, is a basic utensil that should always be present in the kitchen. But there are several types of mold, and we're more interested in the hinged mold, which is one of the most practical and widely used. In fact, today's pastry chefs are increasingly opting for hinged molds instead of traditional ones. But why?

A hinged mold is not significantly different from round or square molds, except that it is equipped with a clamping system on its rim. This regulates the pressure on the preparation. In other words, the sides open and the bottom is removable. This type of mold is often used to prepare cheesecakes, mousses and other fragile desserts, which need to be well held and delicate to remove from the mold. The presence of a hinge on the mold makes it much easier to remove the cake from the mold without altering its shape.

The perfect utensil for cake design!

With its high sides, this mold is perfect for making multi-tiered cakes such as rainbow cakes, wedding cakes, sponge cakes, sponge cakes, molly cakes or birthday cakes. This mold can also be used to make other sweet dishes such as fruit and chocolate charlottes, or custards, as well as savory creations like quiches. It can also be used to prepare the base for layer cakes and pièces montées. As you can see, it's particularly useful for cake design.

Thanks to its non-stick coating, this mold offers several appreciable advantages: better heat conduction for faster, more even baking, easy unmolding, easy washing, and improved resistance to scratches and stains.

The use of this mold is similar to that of a conventional mold, but it is during demolding that the hinged mold proves particularly useful. Indeed, demolding is one of the most delicate moments in pastry-making. It can be difficult if the pastry has swollen too much and needs to be cut, or if the cake sticks to the mold...

The hinged mold solves all these problems thanks to an ingenious system and a removable bottom! Once your cake has come out of the oven, place it on a trivet and wait for the mold to cool slightly. Then simply open the hinge to detach the cake ring. This makes for easy removal from the mold.

As far as cleaning is concerned, this mold is easy to care for, as it disassembles easily. Simply wash by hand with soap and water. Its non-stick surface facilitates degreasing.

Don't wait any longer! Amaze your friends and family with superb tiered cakes thanks to this non-stick high hinged mold. Essential for any pastry chef, this utensil is just what you need to prepare tall cakes like bavarois and panettones.
