jelly mold

Dessert setting vessel

A jelly mold is a container used to shape gelatin desserts, typically made of metal, glass, or silicone with decorative ridges or patterns.

The mold gives structure to the wobbly dessert as it sets, then releases it for serving: She unmolded the aspic from a copper jelly mold.

Victorian-era molds often featured elaborate architectural designs.
