Trompe-l'œil molds for fruit entremets
Realistic fruit-shaped silicone molds for stunning trompe-l'œil entremets, with clean unmolding and a velvet finish.
How to make a trompe-l'œil dessert
The trompe-l'œil mold faithfully reproduces the shape of a fruit. Assemble the entremets (mousse + a gelled insert at the center), freeze until completely set, unmold while frozen, then finish with velvet spray or glaze for realistic color and texture. A chocolate stem or leaf completes the illusion.
Shapes and finishes
Lemon, raspberry, apple, pear, peach, passion fruit… the shapes cover the classics of trompe-l'œil desserts. The final result depends on the finish: velvet spray for a matte, powdered look, or glossy glaze for a lacquered effect.
