Do I soak the cake pan strips before I put them on the cake pan?
80792
Yes, soak then run thru your fingers to get most of the extra moisture out. They work great!
80793
Oh, yes. I usually run water over them til they're wet and then attach them to the pan. If that isn't done, I'd assume they would just char in the oven.
80794
Yes, soak them and then run your fingers down them to squeeze out the excess water. They work great!
80795
Yes, or they will scorch. Do squeeze excess water out before putting on pans.
80796
Yes! They don't work if you don't soak them. It is sort of like a water bath.
80797
Yes, you want to saturate them with water, but you don't want them so wet that they're dripping. This will keep the strips from burning
80798
Yes, soak them underwater for a couple of minutes and then run the strips between your fingers to lightly squeeze out the excess water. After you're done baking they will come out dry.

Never had a problem, use a spray as well. Came out great. You can also use the Wilton Bake Even Strip Set, to wrap around the pan so the cake bakes a even flat top.

No they do not, I use the Wilton Bake Easy Non-Stick spray with them. I stopped using non-stick baking pand, they get too gummy after awhile, you are better off using the aluminum pans, they clean up much easier.

No! be sure to cure the pan before first use (instructions on manufacturers website) and wipe clean with a towel. if you clean with water/soap, place in warm over to dry ( or pan may rust )

After you push up the mini cheesecakes out of the pan, is it messy to remove the cakes from the little disks?

I bought the bands that bands that goes around the cake pan, if that's your question , it didn't work for me. Cake was still burnt around sides.

After the cake is frosted with the fondant (or buttercream) I have used them with both.If you use buttercream put tulle (veil material) on frosting first so buttercream doesnt stick to mat.

I suggest you not overheat them or scrub them with very rough material. If you do not do the first you should not need to do the second. These are my favorites and no problems. I read the other reviews then went back to check all my pans. No smell and one slight stain which I cleaned. I'm a Happy Cooker.

I wrap strip around pan taught & pin it across where they overlap. Like you're pinning a corsage.

Sharon:There should be no need to use cooking spray on the pans. Use butter, perhaps. You should also check the website and try to find the exact pan you have. they have the most up-to-date information. If you can't find the answer yourself, I'd invest the time to give the customer service number a call. If you still have the wrappers around the pans, read this carefully. A lot of information is spelled out regarding use and proper care. I hope this helps. If not, please ask again.All the best!Helen

I used the baby cakes mix first. Then I used the regular cake mix straight out of the box. Didn't water it down, reduce parts of mix. Hope this helps.

You don't bake them with the sticks in. I use the holes to test the cakes for doneness. When they're done, about a minute after I take them out of the oven, I put the sticks into the cakes through the holes before taking off the top silicone piece.

Hand washing is recommended. Even though the Fat Daddio products are NOT non-stick, I have had no problem getting my cake pan clean.

Nope. I just use cooking spray (like Pam) every time before I put the batter in. Also, just a helpful hint - a 1-1/2 tbsp measure is the perfect amount for the mini-cupcakes.

Would you be baking them in a water bath? I think you would want to wrap the pan in foil if you are going to bake in a water bath. I used with a very liquidy cake batter and didn't have any problems with leaking. If you are doing creme brulee, you would obviously want to be careful if you are using a torch to make a sugar crust!

I just make sure the pans are extremely well oiled, either using a baking spray or butter. Also, when you wash the pans, be sure to hand-wash them and towel-dry them immediately, otherwise the finish might be ruined.

Linda, make sure to grease each cup and the bottom insert piece too. The pans are great as far as nonstrick but always grease them (I use cold butter). Start by filling each cup half way to make sure you have enough batter. Don't fill to the top as each little cake will puff up and you don't want the pan to over flow. They cook pretty fast, so you might want to set your oven a bit lower (I usually use 300-325 degrees). Once they are cooked let them cool before trying to remove. Just push up from the underside and slide the metal bottom piece off the cake. Good luck!
