Disclosed is a multi-cavity type utensil for molding sushi rice for use in preparing nigiri-zushi. The utensil has a split mold (1) comprising a lower mold member (11) and an upper mold member (12), and an outer frame (2) for the split mold to removably fit in. The molding cavities defined by partition walls (3) are formed in the lower mold member (11) and the upper mold member (12). The cavities are arranged in a plurality of rows and have one or more intersections of crisscrossed partition walls (3). The cavity corners are rounded or beveled at least in a vertical direction. An upwardly and downwardly movable, spring-biased baffle piece is projected from the end surface of the intersection in at least one of the lower and upper mold members. <IMAGE> |
