a woman wrote she made tea cakes with reg. cake mix how long would you bake them and what temperature also she wrote she made cheesecakes in the pan now that I can't figure out you put the crust in first it would be on top so how would that work

I have done red velvet tea cakes from a cake mix and I think I baked them about 8 minutes. I have also done brownies and filled the indentation with whipped topping. I don't see how you could make cheesecakes because as she said, the crust would be on the top. I do love the pans though, very easy to use and clean.

It all depends on what you put in the pan. Just because the pan is 3" tall, it doesn't mean you have to fill it. I use the same recipe I used in a 2" pan, the new pan bakes it exceptionally well. If you choose to increase the batter to fill the 3" pan, of course it will take longer to bake, but I would expect the same result. I don't know why it would spill over the top. There are no leavening agents in cheese cake.

I use a recipe that calls for 2 cream cheeses and 2 eggs and no sour cream or additional liquids and it makes roughly 12-15 mini cheesecakes depending on how thick the crust is. Hope that helps

I bake them at 350 degrees approximately 14 minutes and let cool on rack for 20 minutes and have never had any problems. For the crust 1/3 stick melted butter, 3 tblsp. sugar, 1 cup of graham or chocolate crumbs. My go-to recipe is 1-8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, 1 egg, 1 tsp. vanilla, 1/4 cup sugar. I change it up with other homemade extracts, such as raspberry, strawberry, etc., and then add fruit or drizzle on top. Hope this helps.

Wife say it needs to be real cold then it should work as it came out of the fridge then start pressing it on the cake as it starts to warm up good luck

Thanks for your quick response. I was reading up on dark baking pans and they said that besides lowering the temperature, which I did but the crust was still thick and dark but not as hard as when I baked it with 350 degree, you should line the pan with parchment paper to get better results. I used one sheet of lining at the bottom of the tin. The next time I use this pan, I will use two sheets of parchment paper and line the entire pan. I will let everyone know how it worked.

Isn't this the most wonderful dessert? "Cook covered on high for 3 minutes. Stir and cook for an additional 3 minutes." I have doubled the recipe and cooked it for 4 minutes, stirred and cooked for 4 minutes. It worked just fine. THANK YOU for asking this question. I have one more old box and had not read the new box. I will now cut the back off the old box and save it! Callie

I do not use cake mixes, so I can't speak to the first part of your question. I bake the 4 1/2" pans at 325 degrees for approx 20 min. Good Luck.

I returned mine because the timer does not work, it's stuck and it won't move at all so I bought another one - Sunpentown, super turbo oven, so2000. I bake cake in mine using metal pans. But it's easy to burn it so start with low temp setting and keep watching it until you get the hang of it. Hope this helps.

Well, my sister is the one that bakes. She makes her cakes in a regular house oven and they are perfect. But she also uses some ingredients and other methods with this pans that she won't share. Sorry if it wasnt much help.

My silicone bundt pan works perfect, please note that you have to take your cake out of pan only when it is not hot anymore ...aproximately after 30 minutes otherwise it can "slouch" down. So if you bake it for 30 minutes, then let it cool in open oven, if you put cake from the oven into cold place it definitely will "slouch" down because difference of temperatures. It is especially important for sponge cakes and alike...

Dear Natalie...I am sorry it took me so long to get this letter sent to you. I don't read my emails very often and just now found your question.I personally recommend putting the gingerbread house pan on a cookie sheet just in case it were to tip over while you were baking it. I don't have the instructions anymore so I don't know what the company that made the pan recommends. Let me know if that works for you. Good luck with your baking.

I did not use the pan to make cakes. I used the pans to make Monkey Bread. Monkey Bread is different from cake batter, but I set he oven for 350 degrees and 20 minutes. The Monkey Bread came out perfect.

Linda, make sure to grease each cup and the bottom insert piece too. The pans are great as far as nonstrick but always grease them (I use cold butter). Start by filling each cup half way to make sure you have enough batter. Don't fill to the top as each little cake will puff up and you don't want the pan to over flow. They cook pretty fast, so you might want to set your oven a bit lower (I usually use 300-325 degrees). Once they are cooked let them cool before trying to remove. Just push up from the underside and slide the metal bottom piece off the cake. Good luck!

Be careful how long you bake the cake. That could be why it is dry for you. I really like this cake.

I purchased 3 sets (9 pans total). I made two batches of my regular cheesecake recipe (9") and used all 9 the 1st time. I cooked them exactly the same (water bath, temperature, and setting time) but for 1/2 the length of time. They came out a little thin so I made 7 the 2nd time. I cooked them an extra 10 minutes and they came out much better. The crust was a little thicker and the filling a little taller. I had nothing but compliments both times.
