A versatile basket mold
These versatile baskets are a great way to make Camembert and other soft cheeses. They're light weight and take up little space making shipping long distances very economical. They hold up well and make a beautiful pattern to boot. I use them regularly. Thank you!
Nice basket
Nice product at a reasonable price
Great for a beginner
These basket molds were delivered promptly. They work great for beginning cheesemaking because of their versatility. Their quality is good, I have washed them on the top rack of the dishwasher several times already. They also come in handy to create makeshift cheese equipment when you are starting out and haven't bought expensive racks and presses, etc. I turn them over and place other cheeses on top of them to keep them out of the whey when ripening curds. They also serve to hold a small board for aging cheeses out of the ice in the bottom of a cooler/ice cave.
Ok Quality
These molds are good economically, but are a 'medium' when it comes to quality. (3 of them had a crack on the top ring when they arrived). The cracks weren't a deal-breaker, but it was evident the material is on the brittle side. Again, good price and the size I wanted, but won't be getting another set. Oh, also - the drainage openings are quite generous in size, so found there are only a couple different types of cheeses I'll use for these molds.
Sturdy and Reliable!
