What it is
Mignon tart shells with a 44 mm diameter, ready to fill for professional pastry work. They are crisp, crumbly shortcrust bases with a golden colour, supplied in a 2 kg professional carton.
Product reference and format
The current commercial line is MIO and the supplier reference identifies Mignon tartlets in a 2 kg carton. The 44 mm size creates a consistent small base for individual pastry pieces, buffet trays and display-case assortments.
Producer and product profile
The MIO line is by Innovaction Srl. The base is made with type 00 wheat flour, vegetable margarine, sugar, pasteurised whole egg, inverted sugar, flavouring and carotenes. It has a golden appearance and a crisp, crumbly texture designed to carry a filling.
Professional uses and portions
Fill one shell per mignon dessert with pastry cream, fresh fruit, chocolate or mousse. Finish shortly before service when a crisp texture is important. The format suits pastry shops, hotels, restaurants, buffets and catering teams preparing consistent small desserts in a 2 kg carton.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not overfill the shells or add very wet fillings too early, as moisture can soften the shortcrust. Handle the bases gently to avoid cracks around the rim. Keep flavours balanced so the pastry base remains part of the finished bite.
Storage and handling
Store the sealed carton at room temperature as indicated for this product and protect it from heat, humidity and crushing. Keep the carton closed until preparation. After filling, follow the handling and use instructions on the pack and keep finished pieces protected during service.
