Silicone Modak Moulds for Ganesh Chaturthi and Festive Sweets

MoldBerry’s silicone modak moulds help you shape perfect, festival-ready modaks at home — Lord Ganesha’s favourite sweet, traditionally made for Ganesh Chaturthi. Whether you’re making steamed ukadiche modak, fried modak, or modern chocolate modak, our food-grade silicone moulds give you consistent, detailed shapes every time, without the skill it takes to hand-pleat modak by hand.

Shape Moulds vs. Filling Moulds — Which One Do You Need?

Our modak mould range includes two distinct types. Standard shape moulds are single-cavity presses that give you the classic modak outline for chocolate, fondant, or steamed rice-flour dough. Filling moulds, like our 4-cavity big filling mould, are designed specifically for stuffed modaks — you shape the outer covering and add filling (coconut, jaggery, dry fruit, or chocolate ganache) before sealing, giving you a professional, evenly-shaped stuffed modak. If you’re making the traditional coconut-jaggery stuffing, a filling mould saves significant hand-shaping time over a standard shape mould.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ What is a modak mould used for?

A modak mould is used to shape traditional Indian Modaks into their signature pleated, conical form quickly and consistently. Silicone Modak moulds are ideal for making steamed (Ukadiche) Modak, fried Modak, chocolate Modak, mawa Modak, and other festive sweets.

+ What is the best material for a Modak mould—silicone or plastic?

Food-grade silicone is the preferred choice because it is flexible, non-stick, durable, and easy to clean. Unlike plastic moulds, silicone releases delicate Modaks easily without damaging their detailed design and is suitable for repeated use.

+ What is the difference between a Modak shape mould and a Modak filling mould?

A Modak shape mould creates the traditional outer shape in a single piece. A filling mould allows you to add fillings such as coconut-jaggery, dry fruits, chocolate, or ganache before sealing the Modak, making it ideal for stuffed Modaks.

+ Can silicone Modak moulds be used for chocolate, fondant, and other sweets?

Yes. Silicone Modak moulds can be used for chocolate Modaks, fondant, candy, jelly, mawa Modaks, dry fruit Modaks, ice, and other festive desserts. For hygiene, use separate moulds for food and craft materials such as resin or soap.

+ Are silicone Modak moulds food-safe and safe for steaming?

Yes. MoldBerry Modak moulds are made from premium food-grade, BPA-free silicone that is safe for direct food contact. They are heat-resistant from -40°C to 230°C, making them suitable for steaming, freezing, microwave use, and dishwasher cleaning.

+ How do I remove Modaks from a silicone mould without breaking them?

Let the Modaks cool or set completely before gently flexing the mould from the back. For chocolate Modaks, refrigerate the mould for 10–15 minutes before demoulding to achieve clean, detailed shapes.

+ What cavity size should I choose for making Modaks?

For home use, 4 to 8 cavity moulds are ideal for preparing small batches. Sweet shops, caterers, and commercial kitchens often prefer 13 to 21 cavity moulds to speed up production during festive seasons.

+ How do I clean and store silicone Modak moulds?

Wash the mould with warm soapy water or place it on the top rack of a dishwasher. Allow it to dry completely before storing it flat or loosely stacked in a cool, dry place to maintain its flexibility and shape.
