Expert Review and  Insights

The Matfer Exoglass range is a staple in professional kitchens for a reason. Unlike metal, there's no risk of rust, and  its non-stick properties are inherent to the material, not a coating that can degrade. They provide a fantastically clean release, which is crucial for delicate pastry work where presentation is everything. They’re a true workhorse.

  • Pros: The release is flawless. You get super sharp edges without any greasing.
  • Cons: They are rigid, so don't expect the flexibility you'd get from silicone rings.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Lavender Bakehouse in Cheltenham was looking to improve the consistency and  presentation of its popular individual Bakewell tarts. Their old metal rings were becoming difficult to work with, often causing sticking and  imperfections, which slowed down their morning bake-off.

"Switching to the Matfer Exoglass rings was a revelation. We get a perfect, clean release every single time, without fail. The finish is so much more professional, and  the time we save on prep and  cleaning is significant. Our pastry section is calmer and  more efficient."

Samuel Davies – Head Pastry Chef

The bakery successfully reduced pastry waste by over 90% and  increased the output of their individual tarts by 20% during peak morning hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give the rings a quick wash in warm, soapy water before their first use.
  • No need for seasoning or oiling – they are ready to go straight out of the box.
  • Place them on a flat baking sheet or perforated tray for best results.

Keeping It Going

  • Completely dishwasher safe for easy and  hygienic cleaning.
  • To prolong their life, avoid using sharp metal utensils or abrasive scouring pads on them.
  • The material is non-porous, so they won't stain or retain odours.
  • They stack neatly, saving you valuable storage space in the kitchen.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Pastry Rings

Not sure which pastry ring is right for your kitchen? Getting the right tool makes all the difference. Here’s a quick rundown of what to consider to ensure you get the perfect bake every time.

Material Matters

Exoglass offers durability and  non-stick ease. Metal is a classic but may require greasing. Silicone is flexible but can lack rigidity for sharp sides. Choose based on your priorities: ease of use or traditional feel.

Size and  Shape

Consider what you’ll be making most. 80mm rings are perfect for individual desserts and  starters. Larger rings are for sharing tarts, while square or rectangular shapes can offer a modern presentation.

Perforated vs. Solid

Perforated rings allow for better air circulation, resulting in an extra-crispy, evenly baked crust. Solid rings, like this one, are fantastic all-rounders for tarts, mousses, and  no-bake desserts.

Ease of Cleaning

In a commercial kitchen, time is money. A dishwasher-safe option like this Exoglass tart ring Matfer model saves valuable time on clean-up compared to hand-washing delicate or complex metal rings.

Stackability and  Storage

Kitchen space is always at a premium. Check that the rings are designed to stack neatly without warping or getting stuck. This makes storage far more efficient.

A: No, they are rigid and  sturdy. This ensures they hold their shape perfectly during baking, giving you sharp, straight sides every time.

Why Exoglass is a Baker's Best Friend

Ever wondered what 'Exoglass' actually is? Think of it as the next generation of bakeware. It’s a special composite material, developed by Matfer Bourgeat, that’s incredibly durable, rigid, and  naturally non-stick. Unlike pans with a non-stick coating that can eventually scratch or peel off, the non-stick property is built right into the Exoglass itself. This means it lasts and  lasts, even in the busiest kitchens.

The best analogy is comparing it to modern cookware. You wouldn't use a heavy, unseasoned cast iron pan for a delicate omelette if you had a lightweight, purpose-built non-stick one, would you? Exoglass offers that same leap in convenience and  reliability for professional pastry. It gives you the perfect result with far less fuss, freeing you up to focus on creativity rather than wrestling with your equipment.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Artisan Bakeries: For producing uniform, high-quality individual tarts and  pastries that command a premium price.
  • Hotel Patisserie Kitchens: Essential for high-volume production of desserts for room service, buffets, and  restaurant menus.
  • Event Caterers: Perfect for prepping consistent and  professional-looking sweet or savoury portions off-site for weddings and  functions.
  • Gourmet Cafés: An easy way to elevate your counter display with perfectly formed, professional pastry ring 80mm creations.
