FAQ For Baking Pans

Which baking pan is the best?

Which baking pan is the best depends on the project. For example, no cake pan is suitable for muffins. We have collected the best baking pans and published them in our guide. There you will surely find the right model.

Which baking pan for bread?

The classic for baking bread is the loaf pan. However, not everyone likes it. Alternatively, you can also choose round variants, for example, round casserole dishes made of ceramic.

How do I grease a baking pan?

Greasing is usually done using margerine or butter. A baking brush is helpful for applying the grease. If you don’t have one at hand, you can also use kitchen roll or a piece of baking paper. Grease everything so that you don’t get a nasty surprise at the end.

Which baking pan is suitable for which pastry?

Most recipes specify what kind of baking pan to use. With muffin and quiche tins, the question is superfluous anyway. If the cake is large, a pan with good heat conductivity should be used. Gugelhupf baking molds are particularly suitable for later frosting . However, it also depends on individual preference and what kind of desserts you want to prepare.

Are there plasticizers in silicone baking molds?

No. Silicone is soft, yet no plasticizers are used in its manufacture. If you’re unsure, check the manufacturer’s instructions again or use an alternative.

Are silicone molds harmful to health?

That depends on the manufacturer. Actually, they have to let the silicone molds anneal at 200°C for 4 hours to remove all toxins from the material. However, some shorten this step or skip it altogether. So if you are unsure, you can temper a baking pan yourself. At best, open a window during the process and leave the oven open for a while afterwards.
