The invention relates to a baking mould which is made from a paper material and comprises a plane base (1). Integral with the base (1) the mould has substantially smooth, inclined sides (2) extending obliquely outwards from the base (1). At the top, the mould terminates in a projecting flange (2a) which forms an angle with the sides and is formed with an indentation (2a1) which forms a groove extending along the flange (2a).
