The silicone baking molds (seashell mould, lunch boxes, etc.) meet all requirements that may require resisting any cook oven temperatures and freezer, microwave and the ravages of the dishwasher, are non-stick, flexible and lightweight, they are saved easily and they will not rust. In addition, some have been designed with a colorful modern cheerful and that look in any kitchen.

For best results, follow these tips:

Before first use, the silicone molds, like pig cake mold, should be washed with warm water and soap, .

In use follow the instructions as regards maximum temperature (240C) and minimum (-40C).

Being flexible, they should be placed on a tray (with a manageable edge, if possible) in both the freezer and the oven to prevent the content from being deformed.

Molds for scones and muffins can be introduced into another metal.

Although silicone is rapidly cooled, keep in mind that the oven is maintained at high temperatures so it is important and necessary to protect your hands with mittens to avoid getting burned.

Do not use sharp knives or other pointed tool, as silicone may be perforated.

The smaller molds, to be able to move inside the dishwasher from one side to the other, should be washed by hand with soap and water.

To prevent mass remains sticking to the mold, spraying with a little oil or dust with flour before use.
