Feature:

• Material: Polycarbonate (PC) plastic: This material is rigid, durable, and generally food-grade. It’s favored by professionals for creating chocolates with a glossy, polished finish.
• Color: Typically Clear or Transparent. The clear nature allows you to monitor the chocolate filling and detect air bubbles.
• Cavities: 18 individual cavities, arranged in a 63 grid
• Shape: Long Stick / Pipe / Cylinder Shape. The cavities are long, thin, and hollowed out in a semi-circular or cylindrical depression, resulting in a sleek, elegant, full-round stick or pencil-shaped chocolate piece.
• Size (Approximate) Overall Mold Size: 27.5 x 13.5 x 2.4 cm
• Single Cavity Size : Approx 8.2 x 1.2 cm Depth : 0.6 cm
• Approx. Chocolate Weight: These are thin, so the weight is typically 5 grams to 8 grams per stick.

Key Characteristics:

• High-Gloss Finish: The rigid and smooth surface of the polycarbonate is essential for achieving a professional, shiny, non-stick finish on properly tempered chocolate.
• Durability: Designed for repeated, long-term use, even in commercial environments.
• Easy Release: The material facilitates the clean, easy demolding of well-tempered and fully set chocolates.

Uses:

• Professional and Home Chocolate Making: Ideal for making artisan chocolates, bonbons, pralines, or truffles, especially those that require a perfect shell for filling.

Disclaimer & Care:

• Temperature Tolerance: Polycarbonate is heat-resistant to a degree, but it is not suitable for oven use and should not be exposed to direct, high heat. It is typically freezer safe for quick-setting chocolates.
• Cleaning: The mold should be cleaned carefully to preserve its glossy surface.
• BPA Status: Reputable food-grade polycarbonate molds are generally BPA-free.
