Are COPPER moulds really better than silicone ones? Copper canele moulds are often said to produce the best caneles (or canelé in french). Compared to silicone canele moulds , copper ones conduct heat a lot better. Combined with the right recipe, this creates caneles with a thin and crispy crust and gooey custard centre. The major downside to copper canele molds is how expensive they can be and the effort that is required to maintain them through regular seasoning and cleaning.

The alternatives are not always bad. In fact, some silicone molds now have metal powder mixed in to boost conductivity which can bring similar results to metal molds and baking trays like copper and aluminium.

I thought it would be interesting to explore and share my findings on baking caneles with different molds in this video. Hope you guys enjoy!
