This appears in a dessert recipe.
Crème chocolat, framboise en transparence, dacquoise thé vert, crème au Yuzu et à l’orange, glaçage. Montage de 75 moules PG 55 mm + 22 entremets en 35 mm.
I cannot determine what PG means here. "Moules" is also a problem. Could "moules" simple be little cakes "moulded" in tins?

75 little cake tins?
Could pg be petit gateau? Sounds like they are making a tower with 75 55mm cupcakes and 22 smaller ones...

cake moulds
moule is a mould in this sense. Can I suggest that PG means "pour gateaux?" so that the phrase means "cake moulds"?

Cupcake or Muffin Pan
Cupcake - The name given to a small individual cake that is baked in a cup-shaped mold (usually a muffin pan). For ease of removal, fluted paper or foil cup liners can be used. Cupcakes can be frosted with icing and decorated with sprinkles and are very popular at Children's Birthday Parties. The name 'cupcake' originated in Britain and North America in the 19th century and is believed to come from the American system of measuring in 'cups'. Just as the name "pound cake" was derived from using one pound of sugar, butter, flour, and eggs; "cupcake" comes from using 'a cup' to measure the ingredients. The first recipe for cup cakes was in a book by Miss Leslie, dated from 1828, which called for one large coffee cup of cream or rich milk, one cup butter, two cups sugar, four cups flour. The batter was them baked in small tins.

I meant to add that PG is short for Petit Gateaux; moule means a mold for forming the PG.
