Quilted Cushion Topper Mold

Padded cushions and framed windows fit together in a quilted patchwork, puffed up like a velvet cushion. The Quilted Cushion Topper Mold casts one 150 × 150 mm entremet topper with cushions of three heights (8, 10 and 12 mm) and square windows that show the cake underneath. Fill it with mousse or crémeux, freeze, unmould and velvet-spray for a striking finish on a square entremet.

Fillings are flexible. A set chocolate or fruit mousse, a crémeux or a firm bavarois all hold the cushions and windows crisply once frozen, and a thin layer of sponge or dacquoise can be pressed on the back as a base before freezing.

Dark chocolate mousse with a cocoa-butter velvet spray gives the classic look; caramel, praline or fruit crémeux work just as well. It suits signature entremets, celebration cakes, hotel and café display cakes. Custom topper designs are available on request, with low minimum order quantities for bakeries, chocolatiers and F&B brands.
