MOULD FOR CHOCOLATE

Le Prince de Galles

In the chocolate industry, the geometries used are often simple and without counter-forms because they must be demouldable. Chocolatiers are therefore limited in the shapes they can make. Prince de Galles wanted to create a chocolate that pushed these limits.

Technologies used:

- SLA (grey pro resin)
- Silicon injection

Conception & Modelling
A scan of a Lalique sculpture provided us with an initial 3D model. Our R&D teams were then able to make slight adjustments to the geometry to optimise it for production, and to affix the Prince de Galles logo.

Production through 3D printing
The model was printed in resin (SLA technology). Finally, through various stages of moulding and overmoulding, we made an injected silicone mould (food industry approved), supported by a resin structure.
