What sets Emile Henry ceramic apart

• They are high-quality pieces, handcrafted by hand, with attention to every detail. The same artisan who makes it also checks it and signs it.
• The raw material is selected Burgundy clay and it is completely free of lead, nickel, and cadmium. Thanks to the use of natural, high-quality materials and its artisan manufacturing process, Emile Henry ceramic pieces are  very healthy cookware for cooking.
  
• Ceramic is an excellent heat diffuser.  When baking with the Madeleine ceramic mold, you get a gentle, even, and gradual bake, which reaches the heart of the batter and allows it to rise as it should.
• Its non-porous vitrified glaze prevents the absorption of odors, flavors, and bacteria. Its glossy finish means it always looks as beautiful as the first day and is very easy to clean.
• It is highly resistant to small knocks and scratches. Thanks to the strength of its glaze, you can cut the cake directly, taking advantage of the ridged guides to portion it, without having to worry about damaging the mold. 
  
• Ceramic is also perfect for cold dishes and fridge and freezer desserts, as it helps keep things cold for longer. Can you imagine your ice cream, flan, or panna cotta in this beautiful mold? Wonderful! 
  
• Although you can use it to bake or chill any preparation, ceramic is ideal for making light, fluffy cakes; as a moist material, unlike other materials, it does not dry out batters. When you bake in the Emile Henry ceramic mold, you will notice the difference.
  
• It is dishwasher safe without changing its properties or color.

As you can see, it is not only such a beautiful mold that you can't help but look at it, perfect for baking with excellent results and also for cold and frozen preparations, but it is also natural and healthy. 

Wide and deep, it offers generous capacity, perfect for all kinds of recipes. Babkas, sandwich loaves, fragrant brioches, fruity plum cakes or cakes loaded with chocolate, classic sponge cakes or ones adapted to your taste—there is no prettier mold than the Madeleine for bringing them to the table.

CLAUDIA'S NOTE ON THE COLORS: When Emile Henry ceramic is heated, the color of the molds intensifies, becoming darker. The truth is, I personally never know whether I like them more at room temperature or when I take them out of the oven—they're such beautiful colors! The classic red becomes a very intense garnet shade for a while, the blue deepens into a very elegant ocean color... I think they want us to keep using them for baking!
