【Vacuum Forming Application】Realistic Handicraft. Which number are you betting on this round?
Las Vegas Roulette (Chocolate Edition), which number are you betting on this round? French pastry chef Amaury Guichon specializes in designing exquisite chocolate pastries. His incredibly realistic creations often create unbelievable illusions, ranging from Ferris wheels, robots, motorcycles, and more, in a variety of sizes and shapes (Click here to see:The French pastry master's exclusive, realistic desserts in various shapes!). This time, Amaury used vacuum forming technology to design a luxurious marble roulette. Watch how Amaury handcrafted it:
Las Vegas Roulette is a common game in local casinos and a symbol of high-end casinos internationally. The roulette wheel has evenly spaced grooves, differentiated by red, green, and black colors, with numbers on each groove. A wooden spindle stands in the center of the wheel, controlling its rotation. After players place their bets, a steel ball is dropped into the spinning wheel. The winner is determined by which numbered groove the steel ball lands in after the wheel stops spinning!

．Realistic Wooden Table, Smooth Material
After Amaury completes the cake base, he places the round object into the FormBox vacuum forming machine, using vacuum forming sheets. He presses down the handle to mold it, and in 3 seconds, a roulette-shaped mold is created!
The main body of the roulette is structured like a wooden table, and the dark, shiny brown color is perfectly rendered with chocolate! Next, for the trick to achieving a smooth, lacquered wood finish, before pouring other ingredients into the mold, brush a layer of chocolate and oil, then fill it with the ingredients. This allows for easier demolding without sticking to the mold, and the finished product will have a smoother, more complete appearance.
(FormBox food-safe transparent casting sheets are safe for food applications and comfortable for skin contact.)
The reusable nature of vacuum forming sheets means that only one mold is needed to quickly and endlessly replicate objects of the same shape. Simply pour ingredients into the hollow chocolate disc as desired, then combine the two halves of the disc, and the roulette table shape is complete!
．Silicone Molding for Mass Production
The spindle in the middle of the turntable is also made of chocolate blocks. In addition to using vacuum forming technology to quickly create molds according to design needs, mass-producible molds can also be made through 3D printing and silicone casting methods (Click to see:Silicone molding, 3D printing to make soap!).
Next, spread black, red, and green chocolate sauces evenly on special edible sheets, and use a stencil to print the numbers on the roulette wheel. Finally, spray with a gold leaf spray for a sophisticated decorative effect!
