Professional silicone forms Elastomoule® de Buyer in brief:

• extremely fast heat transfer due to micro-bubbles in the material
• perfect caramelisation of the roasted contents
• patented system
• suitable for baking and freezing, can withstand temperatures from -70°C to +300°C

Using Elastomoule® forms:

• Wash the forms with soapy water or in a dishwasher before using them for the first time. Grease the form only with a little oil or butter before the first use. This will not be necessary for further use.
• If you are using the forms in the oven, place them directly on the rack, not on the baking sheet. The grid will result in much better heat circulation and more even cooking of the contents. The grid should be placed in the lower part of the oven.
• The temperatures used for baking in Elastomoule® silicone forms are the same as for conventional baking trays.
• Do not use in the oven in grill mode, infrared rays can seriously damage the forms.
• Can be used in the microwave.
• Never put in the oven if any of the form cavities are empty! Drizzle a little oil into the empty spaces or sprinkle them with flour.
• Do not use a knife or other sharp objects to handle the form.
• Easy to clean under running water or in the dishwasher.

A French speciality - bundt cakes Canelés de Bordeaux, also known as cannelé Bordelais, are absolutely magical. Small cakes with a rich rum-vanilla aroma enclosed under a crunchy caramel crust. This popular recipe was developed about 300 years ago by an unknown Bordeaux chef. Since then, it has seen many modifications. A glossy, dark brown to almost black surface, a bittersweet taste in the first bite, a crunchy sweet caramel crust perfectly contrasted with a delicate centre scented with vanilla and rum - this is the basic characteristic of this dessert. These little bundt cakes are back in the prominence after years, and in time they are surely going to rival Crème brûlée for the most popular caramelised dessert. They are baked in special forms - either copper with tinned interior or more modern silicone forms. They are often served with cognac or wine as they used to be at traditional French tastings.
