Matfer Bourgeat 340415 Cannele Copper Tin Lined Mold

BonjourJe viens juste de recevoir ma commandeCannelé en cuivre, ils sont l'air bien apparemment, mais trop petitsCar pour le prix je pensait qu'il serait un peu plus haut en hauteur, et plus large dommage trop cher !!!Cordialement

I have both the Mauviel and the Mafter molds and the biggest and immediate differences I found were the shape/design and the weight.Shape/Design:Mauviel:The fluting is a lot rounder, and curved.Height: ~4.2cmThickness: ~1mmWidth, from the outside at the widest points, it's about 5.8cm.Average weight of 4 Molds is +/- 83.75 grams, range 81-85g.Matfer:The fluting has much sharper,pronounced angles.Height: ~3.9cmThickness: ~1mmWidth, from the outside at the widest points, it's about 5.5cm.Average weight of 4 Molds is +/- 64.25 grams, range 64-65g.In Practice:Even though the Mauviels are noticeably heavier I haven't noticed any big difference in how well the two molds perform crust formation. I've baked with both molds at the same time and temperature and the carmelization of the crust are both about the same with no observable difference. They will be beautifully browned regardless.Aesthetically, I prefer the Matfer with the sharper angles as it's a bit more eye catching, but that's purely subjective.Weight of each Canele; so if you were to fill both types of molds 5mm from the top:Mauviel: +/- 55-61g eachMatfer: +/- 50-55g eachThis makes sense since the Mauviel molds are a little taller and wider. It maybe worth pre-measuring your batter before you bake. Personally I find that canele that weigh about 50-55g come out nicer, less structural and cosmetic problems.Conclusion:You really can't go wrong with either styles/brands. What it will come down to is price and design, do you prefer the rounder edges of the Mauviel or the sharper more star like edges of the Matfer (I think De Buyer is like Matfer in shape too). From what I've seen from other Canele mould manufacturers is that the Star fluting is more popular/common, so in a way the Mauviel is unique in it's styling.Price, the Mauviels are a little cheaper and based on weight and dimensions, you get a little more copper for your buck. Matfers are more expensive, but at least for me, I like the fluting design on the Matfer. I like having both styles to add a little variety to my Canele, but that's your choice.I'm pretty new to the world of canele, but I must say that its worth the efforts to produce these delicious desserts.

Déçu par la taille du moule qui parait plus grand sur la photo.Au final ca a la taille de mignardises donc il faut prévoir d'en acheter beaucoup pour que ca devienne intéressant.

I was extremely upset to open this package and find that the molds I ordered are barely wider than a large coin. The listing clearly says 2 in x 2 in — the molds I received are not even close. Correct the listing for this product. These are mini-sized and completely useless. I'm angry that I wasted $100 on these.

I love these tins! They are expensive, but worth every penny! I was really happy with how well they worked. Make sure you hand wash only, and season your tins before using them! I coated mine with a layer of oil and baked at 500 degrees for 20 minutes, then let coll and wiped out with paper towels. This made them perfectly seasoned!
