Pavoni Moulds

The Pavoni Formaflex is a nine-cup silicone baking mould made from 100% food-grade silicone and sized to the 1/3 GN format, allowing it to sit directly on a standard GN grid or fit within an existing baking workflow alongside other GN-compatible kit. Each cup produces an individually portioned cake or pastry item, and the flexible silicone construction means finished product can be pushed cleanly from the mould without greasing or lining.

In a working pastry section, silicone moulds of this type tend to replace metal multi-cup trays where clean release and portion consistency matter. The flexibility of the material means set portions come out intact without the need for knives or spatulas, which reduces handling time and breakage during plating. The mould handles oven temperatures reliably and moves directly from oven to blast chiller or freezer without any intermediary resting period, which suits kitchens running a batch-and-chill workflow.

• Clean, non-stick release reduces portioning waste and handling time
• Moves directly from oven to freezer without needing to transfer product
• Dishwasher safe, supporting kitchen hygiene and HACCP compliance
• Fits standard 1/3 GN grids, integrating with existing rack systems
• Flexible silicone construction withstands repeated heavy use without warping

Being a lightweight silicone item, there are no installation requirements. It needs no preparation beyond an initial wash before first use, and it stacks flat when not in use, taking up minimal storage space. It is worth noting that silicone moulds at this scale are best suited to items that hold their shape through the baking process — very loose batters may benefit from a firmer tray support beneath the mould during loading and transfer.

This mould is well suited to patisseries, hotel kitchens, and restaurant dessert sections producing small-batch individual portions. For higher-volume operations producing large runs of identical portions, a larger-format or multi-mould setup may be worth considering. If you are looking to standardise your bakeware around GN sizing or want to discuss how this fits into a wider pastry section setup, the team is happy to help.

The Pavoni Formaflex pomponette mould is a 24-cup flexible silicone baking mould in 1/3 GN format, designed for producing uniform small pastry portions in a professional patisserie or kitchen environment. Made from food-grade silicone, it sits within the standard GN system, fitting directly onto a 1/3 GN stainless steel grid.

In a busy production kitchen, consistency and throughput matter. The flexible silicone construction means finished pomponettes release cleanly without the need for greasing or lining, which saves time during a run and reduces the risk of portions breaking on unmoulding. The 24-cup layout allows a reasonable batch volume per tray, and the 1/3 GN sizing means multiple moulds can be organised within standard oven or proving configurations.

• Food-grade silicone construction with reliable non-stick release
• 1/3 GN format fits standard stainless steel grids and oven configurations
• Suitable for oven and freezer use across a wide temperature range
• Dishwasher safe for straightforward end-of-service cleaning
• HACCP approved for use in professional food production environments

These moulds are well suited to patisserie shops, hotel kitchens, and restaurants with an in-house pastry section producing individual petit-four style items at volume. For very high-output operations requiring multiple trays in continuous rotation, it is worth considering how many units are needed to maintain flow during baking cycles.

If you have questions about fitting these into an existing GN workflow or want to discuss batch sizing for your service, the team is happy to help.

The Pavoni Formaflex mini-madeleine mould is a food-grade silicone baking mould with 20 individual cups, sized to the 1/3 GN format so it sits directly onto a standard stainless steel oven grid. It is designed for producing uniform mini-madeleines and comparable small shell-shaped pastries in a professional bakery or restaurant kitchen.

In practice, the flexibility of the silicone is what sets this type of mould apart from traditional metal trays. Once baked, individual pieces release cleanly with a simple push from beneath — no greasing required, no damage to the surface of the product, and no time lost wrestling items out of rigid moulds during a busy pastry service. The consistent cup dimensions help with portion uniformity, which matters when madeleines are going out on a plated dessert or afternoon tea selection.

• Food-grade silicone construction — no greasing required for clean release
• 1/3 GN footprint fits standard oven grids and gastronorm storage systems
• Suitable across the full oven-to-freezer temperature range for flexible workflow
• Dishwasher safe for straightforward end-of-service cleaning
• HACCP approved for use in commercial food production environments

There are no particular installation requirements — these moulds need no more than a suitable oven and a compatible grid. They are lightweight and easy to store, and the silicone material is durable under repeated thermal cycling. That said, silicone moulds of this type benefit from being stored flat or stacked carefully to avoid distortion over time.

This mould suits pastry sections in restaurants, hotel kitchens, and patisseries producing mini-madeleines in moderate batch sizes. For higher-volume operations running continuous madeleine production, a larger-format or multi-mould setup may be worth considering. If you are unsure whether this size fits your output requirements, we are happy to help you work through the options.

The Pavoni Formaflex half sphere mould is a flexible food-grade silicone mould producing 15 identical half sphere portions in a single bake or set. Sitting within a standard 1/3 GN footprint, it fits directly onto a stainless steel gastronorm grid or perforated tray, making it straightforward to slot into an existing pastry or production workflow.

In a professional kitchen or patisserie environment, silicone moulds of this type are primarily valued for the clean, consistent release they provide. Portions push out without the force or risk of damage that can accompany rigid metal moulds, which is particularly useful when working with delicate set creams, mousses, ganaches, or frozen dessert components where presentation matters. The uniform cavity size also helps with consistent portioning across a batch.

• Flexible silicone construction allows clean, damage-free demoulding
• Suitable for oven, freezer, and refrigerator use within the stated temperature range
• 1/3 GN format integrates directly with standard gastronorm storage and blast chilling systems
• Non-stick surface reduces preparation time and the need for heavy greasing
• Dishwasher safe and HACCP approved for commercial food production environments

In terms of practical considerations, silicone moulds benefit from being placed on a rigid tray or grid before filling — the flexibility that aids demoulding can make a fully loaded mould unwieldy to move on its own. The mould is straightforward to clean, though care should be taken to avoid sharp utensils on the cavity surfaces.

This mould is well suited to patisseries, hotel kitchens, and restaurant pastry sections producing plated desserts or petit fours in moderate batch sizes. For higher-volume production operations running multiple batches continuously, it is worth considering whether additional moulds in rotation would better suit the throughput required.

If you are unsure whether this format fits your current production setup or gastronorm system, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

The Pavoni Formaflex is a flexible silicone mould designed for producing uniform mini muffins in a professional bakery or pastry kitchen environment. Made from 100% food-grade silicone, it holds eleven individual cups arranged in a 1/3 GN footprint, allowing it to sit directly on a standard stainless steel oven grid or baking rack without adapters or additional trays.

In practice, the key advantage of silicone over pressed metal for this type of mould is the release. Baked goods push out cleanly without greasing, which speeds up turnaround during busy pastry service and reduces waste from torn or stuck portions. The material tolerates the full range of professional kitchen temperatures — oven heat, blast chilling, and freezer storage — without warping or losing its shape over repeated cycles. It is also HACCP approved, which matters in kitchens where food safety documentation is audited.

• Consistent portion size across all eleven cups with no metal edges to cause uneven browning
• Flexible walls allow clean, quick demoulding without additional fat or spray
• Dishwasher safe, reducing cleaning time between batches
• Fits standard 1/3 GN racks, integrating with existing oven and chiller storage
• Suitable for oven, blast chiller, and freezer use without performance loss

This mould is well suited to patisserie operations, hotel breakfast production, and restaurant dessert prep where a consistent small-format muffin or individual cake is required in moderate volumes. For operations producing at higher volume or running continuous pastry batches, it is worth considering whether a larger-format or reinforced frame mould would better suit the workload.

If you are unsure whether this format fits your oven configuration or production requirements, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.

The Pavoni Formaflex is a six-cup silicone muffin mould made from 100% food-grade silicone. It sits in a 1/3 GN footprint, which means it drops neatly onto a standard stainless steel oven grid without any additional support tray required. The flexible construction allows baked goods to be released cleanly by hand — no greasing, no lining, and no wrestling with stuck product at the end of a busy service.

In a working pastry section, small time savings compound quickly. With silicone moulds of this type, turnaround between batches is straightforward: product releases easily, the mould goes through the dishwasher, and it is back in rotation without fuss. The material tolerates the full range of a commercial baking workflow — oven, blast chiller, freezer — without warping or degrading, which makes it practical for operations that prep and freeze ahead.

• Releases baked goods cleanly without greasing or lining
• Dishwasher safe for fast turnaround between batches
• Compatible with oven-to-freezer workflows
• Fits standard 1/3 GN oven grids without a support frame
• HACCP-approved food-grade silicone construction

This mould is well suited to patisserie sections, hotel breakfast operations, and restaurants producing regular muffin or individual cake output in moderate volumes. For higher-output bakery environments producing large runs continuously, a multi-mould system on a full GN tray carrier may be worth considering instead.

The Pavoni Formaflex range is a well-established silicone moulding solution used across professional pastry kitchens, bakeries, and hotel banqueting operations. This particular mould produces eight heart-shaped portions in a single GN 1/3 footprint, making it straightforward to integrate into standard gastronorm-based workflows for chilling, setting, or baking.

Silicone moulds of this type are a practical choice for high-repetition dessert production. The flexibility of the material allows portions to be released cleanly without the need for additional greasing in most applications, which helps maintain consistency of finish across large batches. The shallow cavity depth suits delicate set desserts, individual chocolate work, panna cotta, mousse, and similar preparations where a clean, uniform presentation matters.

From an operational standpoint, the GN 1/3 format means these moulds sit cleanly on standard shelving, in blast chillers, and on most baking trays without modification. Key practical points include:

• Non-stick silicone surface aids portion release and reduces prep time
• GN 1/3 footprint fits standard gastronorm racks and blast chillers
• Lightweight construction makes handling and storage straightforward
• Dishwasher-compatible material supports efficient cleaning turnaround
• Consistent cavity sizing supports uniform portioning across batches

There are no electrical, gas, or ventilation requirements to consider. These moulds are suited to most professional kitchen environments — from small patisserie operations to larger production kitchens. Where significantly higher batch volumes are required, Pavoni and comparable manufacturers offer larger GN formats with greater cup counts, which may be worth considering.
