PanSpanSilicone Tart Molds
Which silicone tart mold should I choose for small-batch baking, easy release and the right size for my tarts or quiches?
I’d start with the Webake 8-pack: it has roomy 5-inch molds, and it’s the only pick here that specifies 100% platinum silicone and LFGB food grade. Choose the BWW 8-pack if you want slightly smaller individual tarts, or the Wilewir and VOIRBLEU molds for batches of tiny bites. Silicone flexes to help release delicate crusts, but it also bends easily, so set any flexible mold on a sturdy sheet pan before filling.
#1 · Webake
Webake 8 Pack Silicone Tart and Pie Molds, 5 Inches Silicone Round Mold Individual Small Fluted Cake Pans Mini Quiche Tart Pans for Baking
This is the pick for home bakers who want individual, generous 5-inch tarts, pies or quiches and value the stated platinum silicone and LFGB food-grade details. The eight separate molds are also easy to portion out for a small gathering.
#2 · BWWNBY
8 Pack Silicone Tart and Pie Molds, 4.2 Inch Round Mini Fluted Cake Pans | Non-Stick Mini Quiche Molds for Baking Egg Tarts, Pies, Cakes, Desserts and Resin Crafts, Random Colors
Choose this eight-pack for individual tarts and quiches that are a little smaller than the Webake molds. Its flexible, fluted pans suit varied small desserts, and the set is the best fit if you want several standalone molds rather than a multi-cavity tray.
#3 · Wilewir
Wilewir 3Pack Mini Tart Pan Silicone Molds,Mini Tart Pan for Baking,3Inch Quiche Pan Nonstick,Egg Tart Mold for Baking Egg Tarts,Quiche,Fruit Pies, Cream Cheesecakes
This is for egg-tart and mini-quiche batches: the three molds are described as making 18 tarts at a time, with 3-inch chambers. Pick it when you want many petite portions from a few flexible trays.
#4 · VOIRBLEU
VOIRBLEU Silicone Tart Mold, 2 Inch Mini Pie Pans, Blue, 1 Count | For Baking, Mini Pie Pans, For Mince Pie, For Fruit Pie
Choose this 20-cavity mold for very small tarts, mince pies, brownie bites or chilled treats rather than full individual-size tarts. Its 2-inch openings make it the most portion-focused option here.
Do I want individual pans or lots of mini portions?
For separate, easy-to-serve tarts, choose Webake or BWW: each mold is its own pan, so you can fill only what you need. Webake makes the larger 5-inch portions; BWW is about 4.25 inches across. For a tray of petite bites, choose VOIRBLEU’s 20 cavities, while Wilewir is the better match for making a larger batch of small egg tarts.
How do I keep a flexible mold from spilling?
Place the empty mold on a rigid baking sheet before adding pastry, custard or batter, then move the sheet and mold together into the oven. Don’t try to carry a filled silicone mold by its edges. This matters most for liquid quiche or custard mixtures, which can slosh when a floppy mold bends.
Will silicone give me a crisp, golden crust?
Silicone is helpful for release, but it generally browns pastry less readily than a metal pan, so a beautifully crisp, deeply golden shell is not its strongest use. For these molds, use a sheet pan for support and consider blind-baking the shell when your recipe calls for it. If a crisp bottom is the priority, especially for a delicate custard tart, a metal pan is the safer choice.
Which mold makes sense for high-heat recipes?
All four picks specify a maximum oven temperature of 446°F, so I would not use them in a 450°F oven. Portuguese egg-tart recipes can call for very hot baking to color the pastry and custard; check the recipe temperature and choose a metal pan if it exceeds the mold’s limit. For recipes within range, set the mold on a sheet pan and expect silicone to brown differently from metal.

Questions buyers ask
How can I tell whether a silicone tart mold is LFGB food grade?
Look for the exact product’s packaging or manufacturer documentation to identify an LFGB food-contact claim; don’t treat a generic silicone label as the same thing. Of these picks, Webake is the one that specifies LFGB food grade. That makes it the clearest match here if LFGB is your deciding point.
What does the silicone pinch test tell me?
In the common informal check, pinching or twisting silicone and seeing a white mark is treated as a warning sign of fillers. It isn’t a definitive test of composition or food-contact suitability. Webake says it passed a pinch test, but the test alone should not replace product-specific material information.
What is the difference between LFGB and FDA silicone bakeware claims?
They refer to different food-contact regulatory or testing frameworks, not a simple quality ranking where one label guarantees better performance in every use. Check claims for the specific mold and follow its temperature limits and care instructions. Here, Webake is the only pick that specifies LFGB food grade.
Which of these are platinum silicone fluted tart molds?
Webake is the only pick that specifies 100% platinum silicone. The other picks are described as silicone, but that alone doesn’t establish that they use platinum-cured silicone.
Can silicone tart molds handle 450°F, and what is their maximum oven temperature?
These four picks specify a maximum of 446°F, so 450°F is above their stated limit. Don’t put them in an oven set to 450°F; lower the recipe temperature only if the recipe allows it, or use a metal pan.
Can I use silicone molds for Portuguese egg tarts or other high-heat custards?
You can use a mold only when the recipe’s oven temperature stays within the mold’s stated limit. Many Portuguese egg-tart recipes call for very hot baking to develop browned pastry and custard, which can make silicone a poor match for the result you want. For a recipe above 446°F, use metal instead.
Does caramelized sugar stick to silicone molds?
Hard caramel can cling as it cools, even if the flexible mold helps you loosen it. Let the caramel cool fully, flex the mold gently, and soak it in warm water to clean; avoid sharp tools that can damage silicone. Hot caramel is also a serious burn hazard.
Will silicone molds smell like chemicals or burning plastic in the oven?
A strong or persistent chemical or burning-plastic smell is a reason to stop using the mold and check that it is clean and being used within its temperature limit. Wash it before first use and avoid overheating it. A pinch test or a general silicone label cannot, by itself, identify the cause of an odor.
