Wilton Ball Pan, 3D Aluminum Bakeware for Baking or Molding Delicious and Uniquely Shaped Treats, Makes 6 Half Balls

Works great

I bought this pan with personal lava cakes in mind. I used my regular recipe and made sure to grease the pan with shortening/butter and dusted with sugar before I put the batter in. The cakes turned out amazing and baked perfectly. (See pictures for raw batter, baked in the pan, and then onto the plate.)This pan is awesome! Because there are no corners/edges for the finished product to get stuck on, the cakes plopped right out when the pan was inverted. Clean up was so easy as well because it is a smooth surface- a sponge with some soap took care of all the residue (way easier than a regular muffin, cake pan, or ramekins).Since this pan is not extremely thick metal, I put a small pan under it so that it was easier to put into and take out of the oven. They wasn't necessary because the pan did not deflect/deform at all even when it was fresh out of the oven. It is sturdier than I thought it would be.Baking time is similar to what you would expect if you were doing the recipe in a regular muffin tin. (Maybe 1-2 minutes longer at most.)I would definitely recommend getting this pan.

This pan makes a perfect small ball cake, about the size of an actual tennis ball. I recommend you use a playable piece of acetate to smooth the icing over the rounded surface.

I received this package about 4 days before I expected it, so that immediately made me happy! It was everything I expected from the description. The only downside is the instructions that Wilton sends with the product. On the inside of the packaging, there are instructions for decorating and baking. It says to use a 1/3 cup of batter per tin, and that is WAY too much! It completely overflowed and it was a pain to clean up. I found someone online that has used this pan before and followed their instructions. Only use 2tbsp of batter per tin and that is perfect. Don't use more than that! Other than that one issue, this was everything that I expected and worth every penny. Happy Baking!!!

Thank goodness another reviewer warned me that the cups are very small, they are! However, it was perfect for what I needed and I am very happy with it. Don't forget to butter or oil the inside very well as it is not non-stick but if well prepared the cakes just tumble out without any problems. I used it to make ladybug cakes for my daughter's birthday and will use it again to make soccer cakes for my sons birthday. This pan has 101 uses to it!

I ordered the mini ball pan to make a caterpillar cake. I had read other reviews, so I knew to spray the pan and use flour to keep the cake from sticking. I followed the provided baking instructions and it turned out great. I only ordered one pan so I had to refill the pan to use the rest of the batter. Keep in mind that each mini ball is one serving, so it would take a lot of balls to serve a large group of people.

Like that it is so light weight - non-stick and easy to use.

I bought two of these pans to make some mini disco ball cakes for a 70s roller disco party for my kids. Preparing the pans takes a little time. You have to brush on the shortening with a pastry brush, then flour them. Makes for a bit of a mess, but it worked better than using the Baker's Joy spray with the flour in it.The cakes bake quickly, although you get a little waste because you need to scrape off the bottoms so they rest flat. I put a little less batter in on the second batch so that it didn't rise as much. Each cake popped out perfectly intact. The batters made 15-16 cakes each, so unless you buy three, you'll have to do it in two batches in the oven.Now the problem: decorating these little suckers. It's very difficult to just spread the icing on unless you hold them in your hand, because of the shape and size. It just didn't look good on my test cake. I decided to then use my decorating pump, which worked a lot better, but you can't do the bottom around the edge unless you're putting it directly on whatever you're going to serve it on. I was transporting the cakes (used a cake box) to the party, then transferring them to dessert plates. I decorated them on parchment so I could pick them up without messing them up, then did touch-ups at the party. Not ideal.But the worst part? It took 10 minutes PER CAKE to do the icing with a pump. I made 30 cakes. You do the math! It took so long, my thumb and index fingers on both hands went numb for about 24 hours.I can see many, many uses for cakes with this shape, but in the end, I don't think it's worth it if you need to do a lot of them that are going to be decorated. However, they'd be great for making strawberry shortcake or cakes where you can drizzle a sauce on. I definitely plan to use them again, just keep it simple.

Arrived before date, well described

Eine tolle Form um diverse rund Backwerke zu kreieren. Perfekter kulanter Service aus der USA war noch inklusive, da die erste Sendung verloren ging.

En la Pagina de Amazon hace falta detallar más el producto, lo describe como "Mini Ball" pero no es una superficie completamente esferica, es decir, En el fondo de cada cavidad la superficie es ligeramente plana lo que le quita la forma de media esfera.

Fast shipping and item as expected

Fabulous pan. Making baked donut balls all of the time.
