Care

Wash by hand with mild soap and warm water
Dry thoroughly immediately after washing to help prevent rusting
Grease the mould well before baking for best release
Avoid dishwasher use, soaking, and abrasive pads
Avoid long contact with acidic foods once baked; unmould and clean promptly

A simple way to choose is by portion intent (individual vs shareable), then match to diameter. These moulds are slightly tapered, so you’ll often see two diameters: top Ø / base Ø, plus height.

Individual / mini portions (about 1 portion each)

6 cm mould: top Ø6 cm / base Ø2.8 cm / height 2.5 cm
8 cm mould: top Ø8 cm / base Ø4 cm / height 3.2 cm
9 cm mould: top Ø9 cm / base Ø4.5 cm / height 3.5 cm
10 cm mould: top Ø10 cm / base Ø5.5 cm / height 3.8 cm

Small shareable (about 2–4 servings)

14 cm mould: top Ø14 cm / base Ø7.3 cm / height 4.8 cm

Family-size / shareable (about 6–10 servings, recipe-dependent)

16 cm mould: top Ø16 cm / base Ø8.3 cm / height 5.5 cm
18 cm mould: top Ø18 cm / base Ø9.1 cm / height 5.6 cm
20 cm mould: top Ø20 cm / base Ø9.7 cm / height 7.2 cm
22 cm mould: top Ø22 cm / base Ø9.9 cm / height 8.7 cm

Tip: For higher, showier brioche shapes, choose the larger diameters and taller heights; for briochettes and plated portions, the 6–10 cm range is ideal.

For brioche, assume yes: grease every time, especially because the fluted ribs increase surface contact.

Best-release routine:

Brush with soft butter (or neutral oil), reaching into all flutes
Optional: dust lightly with flour (or fine sugar for a crisp, caramelized edge)
If your kitchen is warm, chill the greased mould for 5–10 minutes to set the fat

Liners:

Usually not recommended (they won’t sit neatly in the fluted shape and you lose definition)
If you really need extra insurance, a small parchment circle on the base can help, but don’t try to line the sides

Key habit: after washing, dry immediately and store in a dry place — moisture is the main cause of sticking and rust over time.

Gobel is a historic French bakeware maker best known for its fer blanc (tinplate steel) moulds — favoured for fast, even heat transfer and the kind of browning pastry chefs love. In baking communities, the brand gets praised for “proper French results,” with the common reminder that tinplate rewards good care: wash, dry, and store it dry.
