A baking mold consists of a first exterior element having at least one first baking cavity, a second exterior element having at least one second baking cavity, and an intermediate supportive element having at least one operational channel. The intermediate supportive element is disposed between the first and second exterior elements in such a manner that the first and second baking cavities and the operational channel form a continuous baking chamber adapted to accommodate a baked product.

A pancake flipper with a body including a top side and a bottom side opposite the top side; and defining at least one aperture extending from at least the top side through the bottom side, the at least one aperture sized and shaped to receive a batter therein and having: a first diameter defined by a cylindrical sidewall; and a second diameter defined by a lip mechanically coupled to the cylindrical sidewall, the second diameter being less than the first diameter. The pancake flipper further includes at least two handle portions coupled to and separated by the body, each of the at least two handle portions being of a flexible material.

A baking pan, including a plurality of baking subunits, wherein each baking subunit further includes two side portions and two end portions; a strap surrounding the baking subunits, wherein the strap further includes a first portion, wherein the top edge of the first portion is a adapted to cooperate with the top edges of the side portions and end portions of the baking subunits to form connections therewith and a second portion located beneath the first portion, wherein the strap is attached to the exterior of the baking subunits within the second portion; and a plurality of joining members located between the baking subunits, wherein each joining member further includes end portions that are adapted to cooperate with the top edges of the side portions of the baking subunits to form connections therewith.

Methods and mold systems for an edible composition that minimize both compression forces (weight of inner portion and/or covering acting upon itself) and lateral forces (relative to moving/handling an edible composition) are provided.

A flexible multiple piece mold assembly with interlocking seals suitable for baking to produce a comestible baked product in complex shapes. The mold assembly includes three or more pieces, wherein each of the at least three pieces is configured to be joined by an interlocking seal to the other pieces such that when each of the at least three pieces are joined they form the mold assembly. The mold assembly defines an interior cavity for receiving a substance to be baked into a comestible product and this interior cavity defines a shape for the baked comestible. This mold assembly can be peeled away from the comestible one piece at a time. The mold assembly can have an aperture or one of the seams between the pieces of the mold assembly can be opened to receive the substance. The mold assembly may have one or more vent holes for heat release.

In a method of baking both sides of ingredients between upper and lower dies with the upper and lower electric heaters respectively, a temperature of one of the lower and upper dies is detected. Based on temperature information detected thereby, consumed power of the other of the lower and upper dies is controlled, thereby making a temperature of the lower die closer to that of the upper die, thereby baking both sides of the ingredients.

The present invention relates to a method for the production of a soft cake having at least a molded face and at least a non-molded face, the molded face having at least one molded three-dimensional pattern, the method comprising the steps of: a) pouring a cake batter suitable for forming a soft cake into a pan, wherein the cake batter has a viscosity of between 500 and 1 Pa.Math.s; b) baking said soft cake batter in said pan to form a soft cake; and c) removing the soft cake from the pan, wherein the pan has a molded inner surface for receiving the cake batter and which provides the three dimensional molding pattern of the soft cake, and wherein the molded inner surface of the pan has an arithmetical mean degree of roughness (Ra) of from 0.12 m to 0.22 m, wherein the molded three-dimensional pattern of the soft cake is complementary to the molded inner surface of the pan and has a molded groove which is in recess relative to said molded face and/or a molded ridge which protrudes relative to said molded face, said molded groove and/or molded ridge having a minimum width of less than 4 mm measured across the groove or ridge at the maximum depth or height respectively.

A system and method for producing a comestible baked product in complex shapes using cast molding. Embodiments generally include a first part and a second part, the first part, in some embodiments, being made up of at least two or more component pieces, then, the first part is detachably coupled to the second part creating an outer surface and an inner surface which create a contiguous internal hollow space that extends from the first piece to the second piece in the form of a three dimensional shape, and a means for supporting the unitary mold in a special and beneficial baking orientation. Other embodiments may include a single piece that is attachable to the rim of a cup of a multi-cup baking cup pan or a to a single, stand-alone cup pan. The interior of the mold can receive a baking cup liner.
