Silicone bakeware is easy to work with, non stick, and makes baking fun!
Many people rave about how wonderful silicone bakeware is for baking. I happen to be one of those people and I’m sure you will too after you give silicone bakeware a try.
Fun Bright Colors
Silicone’s comes in fun bright colors and is non stick and super easy to use. When silicone first came out I was reluctant to believe all the hype, I actually thought silicone backware was a fad. So I decided to give silicone a try and boy was I wrong!
Everything I had heard about silicone bakeware was true! Silicone really is easy to clean up and it’s very easy to bake with.
I started with a silicone spatula and quickly grew to love it. Making scrambled eggs in a non stick pan is a joy with my silicone spatula and I don’t have to worry about my non-stick pan getting scratched up or my spatula melting due to the high cooking heat.
Giving Silicone Bakeware a Try
Since the spatula worked out so well for me, I decided to venture into silicone bakeware and see what that was like. I picked up a silicone cupcake sheet from Walmart and tested it out with some cupcakes.
Silicone is Flexible
I found the silicone cupcake sheet to be very flexible, so flexible it needed some support. So I put the cupcake pan on a cookie sheet and then proceeded to fill up the cupcake pan.
My cupcakes browned like they would in a tin cupcake pan. When they were done cooking I removed the cookie sheet from the oven with the cupcake pan still on it. The silicone bakeware cooled down quickly. In less than 5 minutes the cupcake pan was cool enough to touch without getting burnt.
After about 5 minutes or so, I flipped the cupcake pan upside down and the cupcakes tumbled out easily.
The cupcakes tasted delicious with no hit of any rubbery taste.
Clean up was easy. I simply put the silicone cupcake pan in a sink of hot soapy water and the pan basically cleaned itself.
