Silikomart – Design Meets Pastry Expertise

The Silikomart factory is located near Padua, half an hour from Venice – in the heart of the Veneto, a region known for its craft and industrial culture. Dario Martellato founded Silikomart after years of experience in the pastry equipment sector in his family business. He knew the requirements of pastry chefs and confectioners first-hand – what works, what does not, where existing products have their limits and where a new approach is needed. When he decided to work with platinum liquid silicone, it was a conscious choice for the best available material, not the cheapest.

Made in Italy at Silikomart is not a statement of origin but a working principle. The entire processing cycle – from material selection through mould design and injection moulding to quality control – takes place in-house. No outsourcing of production, no anonymous bought-in parts, no loss of quality through intermediate steps. Every product that leaves the factory was developed and produced by the same people who set the quality standards. That is the difference between a product that carries 'Made in Italy' on its label and one that lives this commitment in every step of the process.

Platinum Liquid Silicone – Why That Makes the Difference

Silikomart uses 100 per cent platinum liquid silicone that complies with FDA and CE food standards. Platinum silicone is the purest and highest-quality form of the material: odour-neutral, taste-neutral, free of BPA and other problematic additives. The liquid silicone injection moulding process allows details to be reproduced with a precision not achievable by other methods – fine patterns, sharp edges, even surfaces. The moulds are guaranteed for 3,000 uses and suitable for use in the oven, microwave, refrigerator and freezer.

The temperature resistance ranges from -60 to +230 degrees Celsius – a span covering practically all applications in pâtisserie and confectionery: frozen entremets, baked cake bases, ice cream, mousse, pudding, caramel. One tool for all these applications, without preparing, without greasing, without flouring. Added to this is the flexibility of the material: a silicone mould can be folded, rolled, pressed – and always returns to its original shape. When unmoulding, the mould is gently pulled apart at the edge, which softly releases the contents. Even very sticky or delicate creations can be removed without residue and without damaging the surface.

Design as a Core Competence

What distinguishes Silikomart from many competitors is a pronounced design sensibility that goes beyond pure function. The moulds are not only technically thought through – they are designed, with an aesthetic ambition that plays an ever greater role in modern pâtisserie. Each season brings new collections that pick up current trends in international pâtisserie and translate them into forms: from geometric entremets with clean edges and structures through floral silicone embossings to organic shapes that reflect the handwriting of contemporary pastry chefs.

Texture sheets leave unique surface patterns on chocolate, caramel or sponge – structures not reproducible with brush or handwork. Stencils allow precise, repeatable patterns on surfaces refined with airbrush or decorating powder. Velvet spray – a mixture of cocoa butter and food colour in a pressurised container – creates the characteristic velvety surface on entremets and ice cream desserts that no modern pâtisserie is without today: a fine, matt colour film that makes the dessert surface look like suede while simultaneously protecting it. This combination of quality, safety and performance together with unique design makes Silikomart the leading specialist for culinary silicone use among professional pastry chefs worldwide.

Silikomart at miniSchoggi

A silicone mould that reproduces the same sharp details after a hundred uses as on the first occasion is not coincidence – it is the result of the right material, the right process and a design conceived from the outset for longevity. A velvet spray that produces an even velvety surface without lumps or runs is the result of a formulation calibrated to the specific requirements of pâtisserie. A texture sheet that leaves a precise pattern on chocolate is the result of an injection moulding process that embeds the finest details into the material. A stencil that lies flat and produces sharp edges is the result of a design in which every detail was considered.

What connects all Silikomart products is the same starting point: a manufacturer that develops its products for people who take their creations seriously – whether as a professional who works with them daily or as a home baker making an entremet for the first time. miniSchoggi carries Silikomart because the range covers exactly this breadth. The range at miniSchoggi includes silicone moulds, texture sheets, stencils, velvet spray and further accessories and is continuously expanded.
