Silicone Mat – Openwork Elongated Leaf, 10 Cavities

Product description

Delicate, vein-like leaf decorations in two techniques – as flexible sugar lace or as crisp tuile. The elongated, pointed leaf shape gives a more elegant line than rounded designs, so it runs beautifully up the side of a cake or fans out across the top.

For sugar lace: spread prepared cake lace mix into the mat with a spatula, scrape off the excess, then dry at room temperature or in a low oven. The finished lace stays flexible, so it drapes over curves without cracking.

For tuile: spread tuile or dentelle batter into the cavities and bake until done. The result is a crisp, glass-like leaf that can still be curved while hot.

A hole at each of the four corners lets you sit the mat securely on a perforated baking tray, so it won’t shift while baking or drying, and airflow from below gives an even result.

What you can make:

• sugar lace (cake lace) decorations for cake sides and tops
• crisp tuile and dentelle leaf decorations
• plated dessert components
• decorations for mousse cakes and entremets
• lace borders on wedding cakes
• cupcake and cookie decorations

An elegant choice for wedding and anniversary cakes, restaurant desserts and patisserie window displays.
