A molding tool ejection technology utilizing manifolded air to eject food stuff from a cavity of a mold plate. The cavities include orifices. The orifices are aligned with the channel such that air and gas in the channel exits the orifices. The orifices are assembled with porous inserts. The porous inserts have an exterior surface that have a contour that is continuous with the surface of the cavity floor, including any design etching existing thereon. Air entering the channel is ejected from the orifices, creating force acting on the contents of the cavity thereby causing ejection. The air ejection technology may be coupled with mechanical ejection technology.
