This term is coming up a lot in a translation I'm doing. It's basically a list of ingredients and cooking instructions. It seems as though 'moulée' is simply moulded, but I was wondering whether I should simply leave it as it is or translate it?
Some examples are: moulé rouge, ganache moulée
Perhaps I should just leave them as is? Would this be understandable to people who have a lot of culinary expertise?
Many thanks.

And definitely not your suggestion of ' moulded chocolate' as this implies there is bacteria growing on it!

Note from asker:
| Thanks Oliver, yes the 'moulded' was a typo |

: Yes, as long as the context makes it clear, a 'mold' (NB: 'mould' for GB!) is a valid term for a type of presentation; e.g. my Mum always used to make a 'pear jelly mould'. Nope, GB requires '-u-' in both!

Thanks Tony; but surely 'mould' is bacterial growth in GB, and 'mold' the shape former?

: Yes to ganache moulds (as Asker's in the UK). Mouldy chocolate means that it has mould growth (not bacteria, they're different critters). Moulded chocolate is shaped using a mould.
