Silicone Marvelous Pretty In Pearl Simpress Mold

Now you can add textured designs directly to a crumb coated cake with this Pretty In Pearls Simpress Mold by Marvelous Molds.

This ingenious mold features a one of a kind pearl design, not only allowing you to cover the tiers of your cakes in beautiful pearls in one easy step, you don’t even have to cover your cake in sugar paste first, taking all the hard work out of covering your cake and saving you loads of time!

The Simpress mold features a panel of clustered pearls in varying sizes that is perfect for adorning the side tiers of wedding cakes, anniversary cakes, or any other occasion that requires a touch of class.

The Simpress range of molds have been designed specifically so that you can add them to a crumb coated cake, eliminating the need to cover it in sugar paste first. Unlike the Marvelous Molds onlays that have a thinner pattern that are designed to be added onto fondant, the Simpress molds are designed so that you get exactly the right amount of sugar paste covering the outside of your crumb coated cake, helping you get a great looking cake, as well as a delicious one!

As the Simpress molds provide an optimal thickness of sugar paste, it also means that you will get a smooth finish around your cake which you could not achieve by adding an onlay directly onto a crumb coated cake.

Another great feature is that you can use it to texture buttercream or ganache for a unique finish.

All of the molds in this collection are made with the highest quality, food grade silicone to produce an extremely durable silicone mold that is tear resistant and can withstand temperatures to 204°C (400° F).

The Simpress molds work best with sugar paste/fondant but can also be used with flower paste, modelling paste, modelling chocolate, Isomalt, buttercream and more!

Non-Food Uses: Candle Making, Wax, Salt Dough, Plaster, Sculpting Clay, Polymer Clay, Soap, Cold Porcelain.

Things You Should Know:

1. Do not fill the mold to the top of the blade that rises up around the mold cavity. The mold should be filled to the top of the cavity which is level with the lip and the point where the blade starts to rise from the surface of the mold, people naturally will fill a mold to what they think is the top. If you fill to the top of the blade, the resulting piece will be too thick and not the way it was designed.

2. Put corn starch (corn flour) in a stocking, nylon, muslin tie shut to make what we call a pounce. Roll out fondant, sugar paste to the appropriate thickness, dust lightly with corn flour and put dusted side down onto mold. Press with palm of hand and fingertips forcing fondant into all the details. The blade will already start to cut the fondant. Take a light rolling pin and roll across the top of the mold.

DO NOT PRESS TOO HARD. Light quick strokes work the best and enable the blades to perform perfectly! Once the excess fondant has been trimmed, press again quickly, place your fingers on the side of the blades and press it sideways toward the cavity and down into the cavity. This removes any little bits of fondant flashing and makes a perfect edge.
