I had yet to give into trying these products and finally I bought some wonderful molds for baking tarts at Easter this year... Here are some of the benefits using silicone bakeware and tips I have for you:
Benefits of Silicone Bakeware
No greasing or oiling of pans required
Pans heat quickly and bake evenly with no burnt or dark edges or bottom.
Removal from pans is super easy - a slight twist or gently pulling on the sides and roll out your baking.
They're freezer, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher and oven safe.
Bake, store, freeze and reheat right in the pans.
No rusting or staining.
No need to alter your batter or temperature - bake as usual.
Cleanup is a breeze.
Lightweight and perfect for a camper or RV's for storing.
Imagine the uses for silicone bakeware . You can freeze conversation-inspiring shaped ice cubes for the punch bowl or use those shapes for your favorite gelatin salads or desserts. And no more fears of your special cakes not releasing from the pan. I was quite amazed.
Silicone bakeware is made of FDA-approved food grade silicone and this should be clear on the packaging label. Each piece of silicone has its own limitation as to manufacturer recommended maximum oven temperature, which is usually stamped right on the product.
