【Vacuum Forming Application】Even Baking Novices Can Make Desserts? Unlock Shaped Cakes in Seconds!！
Don't fear, baking novices! Shaped cakes are "unlocked" in seconds! Vacuum forming and laser processing are super powerful, specified by the food industry, and used in dessert development. The more you know, the more power you have. See the combination of these two technologies now!
We have previously introduced many applications of vacuum forming technology in the food industry, from a French pastry master (click to see), an Italian chocolate factory (click to see), to a British artisanal dessert shop (click to see); these are just the tip of the iceberg. As industrial-grade technology enters daily life, now you just need to learn the technical principles and unleash your creativity to develop more production methods.

In the dessert world, the most common application of vacuum forming is to first vacuum form a shaped object, then remove it from the mold to form a food mold, and finally inject various ingredients to easily design customized and varied desserts!
Matt Adlard, a self-taught baker and dessert designer from the UK, researches various innovative techniques for making pastries, hoping to make baking more accessible! He therefore founded the " Bake it Better " teaching platform, dedicated to creating a relaxed learning environment where more dessert lovers can unleash their creativity and learn new technical knowledge.
Matt designed a chocolate treasure box cake with a key and lock shape. To fill the cake body, you can use laser cutting technology. After measuring the cake size, design the desired lock shape on the computer, then use a laser cutter to laser cut a transparent material sheet along the designed path to create the lock template for the cake. This way, you can achieve the same effect as Matt.
(You can choose to use the FLUX series laser cutters, with the dedicated editing software Beam Studio, which allows you to preview the position of the material to be processed through the built-in camera and accurately cut the desired shape.)
(Using FormBox vacuum forming material sheets that are food-safe certified, they can be safely used in the dessert, cooking, and other food industries.)
Spread a layer of chocolate sauce on the template, and after it solidifies, remove it, and a custom-shaped lock is complete! The editor thought of another extended application here: using the same method, you can also make various shaped cake stencils according to your preference, sprinkle chocolate, matcha, or brown sugar powder, and decorate your creative desserts as you wish.
Finally, Matt placed the key into the FormBox vacuum forming machine, paired with vacuum forming material sheets, and pressed for 3 seconds to vacuum form the object's shape. Using the key mold formed after demolding, he injected chocolate sauce to complete the final part of the cake body.
Using industrial-grade desktop equipment, the compact size of the machine allows you to produce your own products at home or in your studio, from design development, idea testing, to even blister packaging, creating your own production line!
