Many chefs and restaurants develop custom molds to create unique presentations that cannot be achieved using standard tartlet molds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The process typically begins with:<\/p>\n<ul data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>shape development<\/li>\n<li>sizing<\/li>\n<li>prototype testing<\/li>\n<li>adjustments to depth and angles<\/li>\n<li>testing how the tart shell bakes and releases<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Even small details can completely change the final result. The depth of the mold, edge thickness and overall geometry all affect how crispy the tart shell becomes and how stable it is when filled.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Custom silicone tart shell molds are commonly used for:<\/p>\n<ul data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>mini tart shells<\/li>\n<li>lobster tartlets<\/li>\n<li>savory tart shell recipes<\/li>\n<li>plated desserts<\/li>\n<li>canap\u00e9 service<\/li>\n<li>modern fine dining presentation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">At Nordic Chefs, we work together with chefs and restaurants to develop custom silicone molds designed specifically for professional kitchens and modern restaurant service.<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking to create your own custom tart shell mold, you can read more about our custom silicone mold development <a href=\"https:\/\/nordic-chefs.com\/sv\/custom-chefs-tools\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/nordic-chefs.com\/sv\/bli-inspirerad\/hur-man-gormunkar-med-kock-eric-vildgaard-fran-restaurangen-jordnaer\/\">Restaurant Jordn\u00e6r recipe<\/a> for crispy bunuelos using our <a href=\"https:\/\/nordic-chefs.com\/sv\/butik\/rosettjarn-dubbelhandtag\/\">Rosettj\u00e4rn<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":20587,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"How To Make Crispy Mini Tart Shells | Tart Shell Recipe","_seopress_titles_desc":"Learn to make crispy mini tart shells using savory tart dough and silicone molds.
