Silpat The Original Perfect Madeline Mold

absolutely love this feel like a professionl baker

Great mold. Mine seems to stick just a tad, not sure why. Other Silpat products are a miracle.

best Madeleine pan ever. this sure beats the metal alternative. Definitely worth the price if you're wanting a perfect Madeleine

TLDR; It works well if you like madeleines and don't like greasing and cleaning.I love this mold for it doesn't require greasing and batter still doesn't stick like it would in metal alternatives. Cleaning is also easy. However, do mind that this mold, like all other silicon molds from Silpat, requires an underlying perforated sheet for good results (I have the one that Silpat offers but note that it may warp in a 400+F oven). Before buying that perforated tray, I tried baking madeleines in this mold on top of a flipped solid aluminum tray and they turned out undercooked and caused me much of a headache and time to finish.This madeleine mold would have been perfect if Silpat alternated direction of "longer" lines (in the same manner they did for their other mold - hearts) or made only the scalloped sides facing both shorter mold edges. In the current design, the edge that holds unscalloped sides would sag quite badly and misshape that row once heated in the oven. This obvious design flaw warrants a "➖⭐️".

It functions perfectly. Yes it is expensive. But this company makes amazing products, and it is actually made in France and not China. The cookies come out perfectly shaped, perfectly cooked, I will never need to buy another one as long as I live. And after I die someone else in my family will inherit it.

The best cookie mold EVER!!! Everything popped out perfectly formed and easy-to-use.

I love this silpat Madeline tray. It is easier to clean than my metal Madeline pan. The tray created a small spot that was darker than the rest of the Madeline but that’s ok. I am already saving for my next silpat mat.

The Silpat 16 hole madeleine tray, made in France, is made from silicone-coated glass fiber. This baking tray creates perfectly cooked Madeleines without the need for greasing or parchment paper. Care includes hand washing in warm soapy water or running through the dishwasher.I first used this baking tray to make the honey and lemon Madeleine recipe on the back of the box. This recipe was a bit unusual to make, but the results were delicious. The ingredient listing showed amounts using either measurements or ounces. The weirdest ingredient was the partial whole egg. I thought maybe this was designed to make 16 Madeleines, but I got 20 from the batter.I baked a batch by placing the tray on the rack and another with the tray on a metal pan. The batch baked on the tray only browned where the tray touched the metal. Even though the box says to use a metal pan, I preferred placing the baking tray directly on the rack. This method can be more difficult to handle, but the Madeleines baked on the rack came out of the oven evenly browned on the bottom.If you’re searching for the perfect Madeleine baking tray, the Silpat 16 hole madeleine tray is worth the investment.► PROS:No greasing or parchment neededDishwasher safeFlexible for simple Madeleine removalPerfectly bakes Madeleines► CONS:Expensive, but worth it
