How much batter does this hold? I'm making my own cake mix and need to know how many cups or something to figure out how much to buy and then fill.

It will take 6 1/4 cups of batter and give 22 servings. If you go on the Fat Daddio's website, they have a chart under the "Help" heading that will give the batter capacity for all of their cake pans. This pan will definitely take in excess of an hour to bake the cake. I bake by internal temperature: cakes should be 205 degrees to be cooked through. A really good instant read thermometer is a must for baking cakes. Test the temperature when you can tell that the cake is no longer "jiggly" in the middle or it could deflate the cake a little. But, you are turning it over to frost so it really doesn't matter....that's experience speaking. Good luck. It will take 6 1/4 cups of batter and give 22 servings.

5 cups of batter fit perfectly (= one box of cake mix, I use Duncan Hines) ... if you make it from scratch it might rise differently and you might need a bit more.

It's an 8"pan it can hold a full cake mix.but WHOLE cakes dry out easy I recommend putting a little oil in the mix. Fyi cupcakes stay fresher longer.

Hello Nana, It hold 12 cups. If you look further down on the order page, it has information about this. I love my cake pan, actually use it for most all my cakes. The pound cake I made looked so beautiful on my platter, I surrounded the outer edge of the cake platter with some fresh flowers, if I say so myself, it was beautiful. It's presentation, presentation, presentation.!! : ) Good Luck, and happy baking. Patti Fessenden

To make a 9" cheesecake that's 5 cups of batter. Each well if best with 1/2 cup batter if your adding a sourcream topping. If no topping, 3/4 cup is a good amount of batter. So 2 pans reguardless.

I measured the volume at a bit over 9 cups. It is smaller than normal bundt cake pans so I fill it about 2/3 full and bake the rest of the batter in a small pan. Makes a beautiful cake!

Exactly 18 cups (of water) fills it to the very top rim of the pan... It is a really large angel food cake pan. I have the 10" one... Obviously, that much batter would overflow all over the oven, but that is how much it can hold.Note: do NOT wash it in the dishwasher... It won't ruin it, but it ruins the finish and makes it look yucky, although it doesn't affect the use of the pan, just its looks... and tell everyone in the house who might ever put a dish in the dishwasher because it only takes once...

Hello... I think it should altho' I have not tried it myself, preferring to make my own cake mix. Just have some muffin cups on standby to use up any remaining batter. This is a solid and well made pan. So I hope you will give it a shot.

I have the medium sized one but I use it for cookie dough. The cookies come out about 2-2/12" round. If that helps any. I guess you could use the medium sized on for the cupcakes and do a couple of test tries. Maybe 1 scoop or maybe 2?? Sorry I wish I could be of more use. Best of luck!! It's the greatest product and the dough comes right out of it!! I'm sure the batter would too! Have you tried looking online for cupcake scoop sizes? And what they recommend? Good luck!! GA

None of the pans come with directions :( I found this on a review. 6" pan - 4 cups batter8" pan - 7 cups batter10" pan - 11 cups batter12" pan - 15 3/4 cups batterIf ordering, want to order at least a month before use. I ordered mine at the end of month 27th and did not receive until the following month around 25th.Hope this helps. I made a birthday cake with top 3 tiers, feed over 20 people.

This pan holds 10 cups of batter; every cake I made came out perfectly. If you are looking for a very large cake, this is not the pan for you. This is not a small cake pan either.

I haven't used it to make any tarts yet, but since the individual "cups" are small I would say 1 tablespoon of filling. Just had my English mom here to visit and although I so badly wanted to make jam tarts with her we didn't find the time to do it!

I took out my Fluted Tube Pan and did a test for you...it holds exactly 10 cups of water in it. However when you use the pan to "bake" it holds a basic cake box mix in it perfectly when done baking. I hope this helps you out? It is basically a "Bundt" cake pan and I personally use it all the time!

Hi~I have this pan and the train car sizes avg about 3.75" x 2.5" and are approximately 1.5" deep. The total volume of cake batter used for all 9 pans is 5 cups. The average cake mix will yield 4 to 5-1/2 cups of batter. Hope this helps you to calculate your serving need.

Lying down and the the directions give you the amount of batter to use. I believe it was about 3 cups. It worked great and is very cute! A nice family tradition that has been in mine for years!

I can't tell you in cups exactly but I can triple (easily) a normal cake recipe without a problem! I love my new mixer...I am a professional couture baker.

This comes with instructions on how to use the pan -- like how many boxes of cake mix to buy/use and then it has the pieces in there. There is also a piece that would allow you to put a filling in the middle of the cupcake.

0.66 (or 20ml) using water to fill level with the top. I wouldn't recomend filling that far. When baking brownies/cakes I "fill" with 10ml. I can freeze about 15ml (1/2 OZ) of baby food or juice without making a huge mess.
