Silikomart recommends not using aggressive cleaners, brighteners or perfumers while washing moulds in the dishwasher. This may cause a white patina to surface on the mould, altering food’s flavours in subsequent cooking. However performance and safety of the moulds are not compromised, you will just need to place them in the oven (without any dough) for about one hour at a temperature of 200-220°C.
White or coloured spots may form on the mould’s surface if particular ingredients such as cocoa butter or tomato sauce are used; this is completely normal, performance and safety of the moulds are not compromised. To eliminate such stains, simply place them in the oven (without any dough) for about one hour at a temperature of 200-220°C.
