Amazon.com Review

Gone are the days of clattering baking pans when the household baker is at work. This professional-level silicone bakeware is quiet and so flexible that it folds up for storage in tight spaces. Made of FDA-approved food-grade silicone, this large (12-1/2-by-8-1/2-by-1-1/2-inch), six-cup muffin pan is oven-safe to 428 degrees Fahrenheit and provides even heat distribution so your bran muffins comes out moist and delicious. The pan is nonporous and won’t retain the odors or flavors of your food after cooking. This bakeware also has a high-gloss nonstick finish on its interior for easier removal of your baked goods and faster cleanup. And, if that’s not enough, this cake mold cools down faster than traditional bakeware and is also microwave-, freezer- (down to 58 degrees Fahrenheit), and dishwasher-safe. SilconeZone’s revolutionary bakeware is covered by a lifetime guarantee. --Cristina Vaamonde

5.0 out of 5 stars engineer, not a baker, August 8, 2004

This review is from: SiliconeZone Large Muffin Pan, Red (Kitchen)

I bought one of these muffin pans because I was excited at the prospect of owning a piece of bakeware whose lining wasn't destroyed by the 3rd time I wanted to use it. For that alone, I would give this item 5 stars.

I am not an experienced baker, but I think that after reading the other review for this item that more balanced comments need to be stated regarding the actual use of this muffin pan.

So here are my comments:

1. You need to use a cookie sheet (or something similar) to support the pan since it is flexible.

2. The muffins cook faster than with a metal pan.

3. The muffins seem small if you fill the cups as you would with a metal muffin pan - you can actually fill them up all the way. (Recall that I am not an experienced baker; as an engineer I suspect that since the muffins cook differently, i.e. faster, this could be compensated by adjusting the batter in some manner. As far I'm concerned as long as the muffins taste good, it doesn't matter to me.)

4. The coating is not exactly non-stick. You do not need to grease the pan, but you do need to be careful when it comes time to remove the muffins. I use the dull side of table knife to separate the muffin sides from the pan (while gently pulling the pan). After doing that I put a plate on top of the muffin pan and hold it against the pan as I invert the pan. All I have to do then is tap the bottoms of the muffin cups to get them out. By my third time doing this I was able to get them all out intact and unscathed.

I am very happy with my muffin pan - it might take a little bit of getting used to for someone used to other pans - but for me, the benefit of not having a cheap non-stick coating peeling off of the metal after a year more than compensates for a slight learning curve on the use.

My first batch of muffins stuck horrendously and I was very surprised. I will try once more, then throw away this pan if I have same trouble.

1.0 out of 5 stars jumbo size disappointment, March 2, 2005

Warning: everything I bake in these has a weird taste because of the silicone - not a plastic taste, but kinda perfumey. It's disgusting. Giant paper muffin cups might help, but I'm buying new metal pans. If you care about taste, stay away from these!
