Half-sphere mould de Buyer 4701.22 Height 100 mm Diameter 22 cm

The de Buyer half-sphere mould (model 4701.22) is a traditional-style metal mould suitable for baking large half-sphere desserts and shaped preparations. With a height of 100 mm and a diameter of 22 cm, this rigid, watertight mould provides even heat diffusion for uniform cooking and helps achieve browned and caramelised surfaces thanks to its iron construction. The mould is finished with a PFOA-free PTFE non-stick coating that facilitates release, protects the steel from oxidation and simplifies cleaning.

Advantages

The iron body reaches and maintains the high temperatures needed for browning and caramelisation, while even heat distribution ensures consistent results. The PFOA-free PTFE coating provides a functional non-stick surface for easier unmoulding and cleaning, and the mould is designed to be undeformable and watertight for reliable use.

Suitable for

• Baking large half-sphere desserts (entremets, mousse domes)
• Creating coated or caramelised dome-shaped preparations
• Professional and home pastry production where uniform browning is required
