FAQs
Can this mould be used in a blast freezer?
Yes, the mould is rated for temperatures as low as -40°C, making it perfect for blast freezing.
What are the dimensions of each sphere?
Each individual cup has a diameter of 50mm and a height of 23mm.
Do I need to grease the mould before use?
Due to the non-stick properties, greasing is often unnecessary, though a light spray can be used for very sticky batters.
Can I use metal utensils with this mould?
No, you should only use plastic, silicone, or wooden tools to avoid scratching or tearing the silicone material.
Is this mould compatible with professional ovens?
Yes, it is designed for professional use and can withstand oven temperatures up to 280°C.
Troubleshooting
Baked goods sticking to the surface
Ensure the mould is clean and free of carbonized food buildup. If sticking persists, apply a very light coating of food-grade release spray.
Mould deforming when moved
Always place the flexible silicone mould onto a rigid baking sheet or tray before filling to maintain structural stability during transport.
White residue appearing on the mould
This is often mineral buildup from hard water. Soak in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water for 15 minutes, then wash thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Pavoni Formaflex mould, always place it on a perforated tray or flat baking sheet before adding batter or liquids to prevent spills. While the silicone is heat-resistant up to 280°C, avoid using sharp metal tools or knives near the cups, as these can puncture or scratch the non-stick surface. For cleaning, rinse immediately after use. While it is dishwasher-safe, soaking the mould in warm, soapy water and wiping with a soft sponge is the most effective way to remove oily residues and maintain the integrity of the material.
