Matfer Bourgeat 371404 Mousse Ring 4.75-inch

Pastry is a discipline of millimeters. The Matfer Bourgeat 4 3/4-inch Mousse Ring provides the structural rigidity and thermal stability required for high-end dessert construction. Whether you are assembling a classic French entremet or a modern savory stack, this ring ensures clean releases and perfectly vertical walls that define professional standards.


Crafted in France from high-grade 18/10 stainless steel, the 371404 model is engineered to resist warping under the pressure of dense fillings and maintains its circular precision through years of high-volume commercial use. At a height of 1 3/4 inches, it is specifically sized for multi-layered compositions involving joconde, dense mousse, and gelee inserts. Unlike lightweight consumer alternatives, the 5 oz weight of this ring provides a stable base on your silicone mat or parchment, preventing seepage and ensuring that each layer stays exactly where it is poured. This is a tool designed for the precision-obsessed baker who values consistency across every service.

    When We Recommend the Matfer 371404 Ring

    Who it Fits Best

    Professional pastry chefs, high-end caterers, and dedicated home bakers attempting multi-layered entremets.

    Where it Excels

    It is unbeatable for cold-set desserts where vertical precision and a clean side-profile are the primary aesthetic goals.

    Professional Comparisons

    This is significantly heavier and more rigid than 'hobbyist' rings found in big-box stores, meaning it won't flex or lose its circular shape during high-volume use.

    Chef Feedback

    "Chefs appreciate the lack of a visible seam on the interior, which saves time during the unmolding process as there is no 'seam line' to smooth out with a warm spatula."

    Trade-offs & Considerations

    Because it is bottomless, it requires a perfectly flat surface and a chilled base layer to prevent thinner liquids from seeping out the bottom.
