I am retired and am finally learning how to cook beyond the basics. One of my goals is to learn how to decorate cakes. I started a thread here on Amazon and asked what kind of cake pan should a beginner get. I received a few suggestions then decided on the Wilton Perfect Performance Round Cake Pan, 8 by 3-inch. I bought two of them. I also purchased a pack of 24 Regency 8 inch Parchment Paper Liners for Round Cake Pans.
This first time was nothing fancy. I just wanted to get some kind of baked cake under my belt, no pun intended. I used a box mix and added the recommended water, oil, and eggs. I don't have a mixer as such, so I used a tall slim electric mixer that can fit into a tall glass. I used the parchment paper in the bottom of each pan, but I didn't add any kind of agent to keep the cake from sticking. I followed the directions on the box.
The cake turned out perfect. So soft and tasted so good. I must say the cake could not have turned out better. The cakes came right out of the pans when I put a cooling rack over the pan, turned the pan upside down and the cakes each fell on the cooling racks. No breaking up, no crumbs, no sticking at all. The only thing I had to do is to gently pull of the parchment paper. This did not damage the cake in anyway. Everything really did turn out perfect. I used store bought icing because of this being my first time.
Before I used them I hand washed them in hot soapy water. After I baked the cake I looked around the Internet for experiences using a dishwasher for these pans. I found a few places that said they were dishwasher safe and nowhere that said not to use a dishwasher to clean them. So I put them in my regular load and washed them on a regular cycle on the top rack. They came out just a new as when I bought them.
These cake pans made my first time baking a cake a pleasant one I will remember. I'm encouraged to move forward and try making my own mix as my granny did when she made her cakes.
I don't know what else to add in saying just how satisfied I am with these pans.
If I have left anything out, please ask me and I will give you the best answer I can. These are the cake pans to buy.
