Small molds — Paderno

The Mini tartlet collection by Paderno brings together the small non-stick moulds dedicated to petit fours, mignardises and individual tartlets. Designed to bake several pieces at once, these moulds are among the must-haves of the semi-professional baking equipment offered by the Italian brand.

The Mini tartlet specificity

The Mini tartlet collection is available in several shapes (round, square, oval, ribbed) and several sizes (from 3.5 cm to 5 cm). The moulds are made of metal with a non-stick coating, which makes it easy to release sweet and savoury preparations and supports repeated use in baking and aperitifs alike.

• Non-stick coated metal, for easy release and quick cleaning
• Round, square, oval (barquette) and ribbed shapes — to vary your presentation
• Sets of 6 or sold individually, depending on the format

Choosing within the Mini tartlet collection

Why is the Mini tartlet collection so popular?

Paderno is a reference in Italian professional equipment, and the Mini tartlet collection lets enthusiasts and pastry chefs bake several pieces at once in the same format as a pastry display. The non-stick coating simplifies the release of fragile preparations.

Which shape: round, square, ribbed or barquette?

The ribbed Ø 4.5 cm shape is the classic of individual tartlets (lemon, red berries). The 3.5 cm square is very modern for sweet-and-savoury bites. The oval barquette is the historic shape for petit fours, and the Ø 3.5 cm round suits very small amuse-bouches.

Which size for which use?

For an end-of-meal mignardise, count 3.5 to 4.5 cm in diameter. For a slightly more generous individual tartlet (canapé dinner, café gourmand), go for 5 cm. The sets of 6 let you fill a tray quickly and bake all pieces together for a uniform result.

Are the Mini tartlet moulds dishwasher-safe?

As with most non-stick moulds, hand washing in warm soapy water preserves the coating over time. Dishwashers may wear the non-stick layer in the long run. Avoid abrasive sponges and pointed knives inside the moulds.
