Technical specifications

• Product code: KT223
• Material: high-quality food-grade thermoformed PVC
• Finished egg dimensions: Ø 14 cm × H 20 cm

Exclusive design: the lunar texture that sets your display apart

The three-dimensional relief surface of the Pavoni KT223 faithfully reproduces the lunar landscape, transforming each egg into an edible work of art. The result — glossy, scenic, immediately recognisable — stands out sharply from classic smooth eggs and meets the needs of a luxury clientele increasingly oriented towards experiential pastry.

The texture is further enhanced by applying coloured cocoa butter before casting, or finishing the eggs with velvet or pearlescent sprays for striking colour effects.

Professional use instructions

1. Preparation

Verify that the mould is perfectly clean and dry. Temper chocolate correctly: dark at 31–32°C, milk at 30–31°C, white at 28–29°C. Precise tempering is essential for optimal shine and snap.

2. Casting and distribution

Pour tempered chocolate into the mould and distribute evenly over the entire surface with a spatula or brush, eliminating air bubbles. For optimal thickness, perform 2–3 successive passes.

3. Crystallisation

Allow to crystallise at controlled temperature (16–18°C) or in cold storage to accelerate the process. The chocolate is ready for demoulding when it shrinks slightly from the edges of the mould.

4. Demoulding and assembly

Gently invert the Pavoni KT223 to extract the hemispheres. Warm the edges of one half on a warm plate, insert any surprises, then join the two halves by pressing gently until perfect seal.

Maintenance and storage

• Washing: by hand only with lukewarm water or food-grade alcohol
• Do not use: soaps, detergents, abrasive sponges or dishwashers
• Drying: with soft microfibre cloth
• Storage: in a dry place, away from heat sources
• Caution: avoid scratches on the internal surface, which would compromise the chocolate's polish
