Lakeland Silicone 12 Hole Mini Muffin Pan

Lakeland Silicone 12 Hole Mini Muffin Pan

This mini muffin tray was my first ever silicon piece,despite a few not totally positive reviews I thought worth a go.Just fantastic for my mini muffins,perfect size for grandchildren and serving at charity coffee mornings.My chef son has also used to bake mini yorkshire puddings as a canape at the golf club he works at with shredded roast beef/horse radish topping(no oil used in base at all).do use a smear of butter for cakes...which is really commonsense .

I love silicone bakeware its very easy to use and produces great results.
I use these for making small fairy cakes instead of the rubbish paper case type, as I always seem to run out of cases when I go baking!
As the previous reviewer has said there is a small amount of sticking, but I wonder if you are allowing the cakes to cool enough before removing from the mould?
I allow the cakes to cool for half an hour and the cakes just pop out easily, it does leave a small amount of cake stuck to the side. This wipes off easily tho and is a very small amount, less than what you get in a paper case!
I do recommend these for moist cakes or muffins and they are small enough to easily fit in the dishwasher and your cupboard for storing.
Another excellent product from Lakeland.

I'm almost ashamed to say I'm a Lakeland addict and always have to buy something and sadly, gets excited at the mere view of a Lakeland sign.
I bought these and on the same day made cupcakes which tasted lovely, however their shape left something to be desired. Even though the muffin pan is non-stick, I still butter lightly the edges just in case, and after leaving them for around 15 mins to cool slightly, the cakes stuck to the tin and out of twelve, I think I had one that came out fine.
After spending £12 on a tin, I did not expect to be fighting to get my cupcakes out! I'll give it another couple of go's but I am really disappointed with this product. Hopefully it was just first time's luck and not being used to 'popping out' cakes.
