Guest guest Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I am ashamed to say that I just threw a major temper tantrum in my kitchen. Tried to use my new silicone bundt pan, making a cake for a party tonight. I didn't think the thing felt that stable, full of cake batter, so I put it on a cookie tray in the oven. I also put a muffin tin on the cookie tray (had extra cake batter from a double recipe). When I pulled the cookie tray out a little so I could take the muffins out, the whole darn bundt pan spilled its contents onto the open oven door. At least it's a relatively easy place to clean. I've got wet paper towels soaking on the spot while I wait for the oven to cool. I have to clean it before I start my second attempt at dessert for this party -- NOT in the bundt pan. Grrr....

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 you need top be very careful, I only use one silicone item at a time in the over. I do enjoy using them though.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 This darned bundt pan is my only piece of silicone bakeware -- I think it will be my last. Hmph.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I have silicone xtra large muffin cups (like the size muffins you get at the grocery store or dunkin doughnuts) and I absolutely love them! I want some mini muffin ones too for my kids. Tameson - " Audrey Snyder " <AudeeBird > This darned bundt pan is my only piece of silicone bakeware -- I think it > will be my last. Hmph.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Tameson, aren't they kind of unstable? Is this like a muffin tin or single cups? I would think the single cups would work better.... I really would like mini muffin cups but all I could find at Walmart was nonstick and I don't do teflon.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Mine are individual cups I have 2 red, 2 blue and 2 yellow. I line them up on the cookie sheet before I pour the batter. I really like them. Tameson - " Audrey Snyder " <AudeeBird Is this like a muffin tin or single cups? I would think the single cups would work better....

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I bought several silicone pans when they first fame out and have thrown most of them away. If my husband raises or lowers the garage door while bread is baking in a silicome bread pan, it falls. They are just too unstable. I still have my 9X9 square pan and two bread pans that I use for freezing left overs in. Left overs easily come out of them so I can wrap then better for the freezer. Thas is all I use them for. I have had several disasters with them, although none as messy as yours. You have my sympathy. Katie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm so disappointed -- I thought they would be great. I stopped using nonstick a long time ago (fumes from teflon can kill my pet birds, plus I don't like the idea of eating teflon). My favorite pans are old aluminum ones I've scavenged from my Grandma's cupboards or bought at garage sales. I'm sure there's something wrong with aluminum, too, but... whatever!
