Silicon cake moulds - any good ?
I've just sent for a Silicone Madeleine mould from Ebay.
Are Silicone moulds as good as metal tins ? |

I like silicone cake "tins". Nothing ever sticks and they clean really easily.
You'd be wise to stand them on a rigid tin baking tray when you're filling them and put the silicone in the oven on that tray, otherwise you might end up cake mix all over your legs/the kitchen floor when you try to pick the silicone up to put it in the oven. You needn't ask me how I know this.

I've got silicone cupcake cases which are easy to clean, I also use them when blind baking pastry for small tarts, I fill the cases with baking beans.
I have a silicone muffin tray with a metal band for stability, it makes the most fantastic Yorkshire puddings, they are about 7 inches tall everytime. |
