Does it bake well? cupcakes, pastries, and pies?

Yes, and also pizzas, breads and more. Best toaster-oven I've owned so far.

Yes, it bakes well. But as I mentioned in my original review I cover the pie crust for half of the time it's in the oven so it doesn't burn. Brownies I put on the lowest rack so the top doesn't get over cooked. It's still a toaster oven and although it is very big, the heating element is still closer than a regular oven. It bakes beautifully but you still have to take precautions that you don't have to take with a regular oven.

I live at high altitude so baking is a real challenge. Therefore I rely on my gas oven which is more temperature consistent. I have only baked prepackaged baked goods, puff pastry items etc and it does well with those.

Yes it does. Have been nothing but pleased with it. Toasts well, bakes well, anything we ask it to do it does very well.

It's pretty good. But I've only made mashed potatoes and a couple of cheesecakes. It did well with the cream cheese that wasn't fully at room temp and that was kind of stiff. And the retractable cord is awesome. It needs help retracting a little, but its great for storage.

Yes. You can put in the ingredients and set it on "manual," then pull out the dough, shape it, let it rise a little, put on your toppings, and bake.

HA I bake wings on it and scones....no problems with the first one I bought but have not used the new one yet. I like the brand and use their bake ware all the time.

My wife is the pastry chef, so I asked her. She says yes it should be enough, but don't be overly generous with the icing. I hope this helps.

Absolutely! I use mine all the time. I love to bake so it really gets a workout. Enjoy.

The bottom part of the oven really browns stuff. We bake cookies, all kinds of appetizers and small pies. It really works well.

Yes, you can make all kinds of things; cupcakes, muffins, quiche, etc, and we have used regular cupcake mix.

According to my wife it handles frosting quite easily.....also handles heavy dough very well...it is a workhorse at 800 watts.

Oh yeah! I've probably made two dozen double batches of cookie dough - oatmeal raisin, and chocolate chip with tons of chips. Never had a problem with the beater, so I'd mix with confidence.

Hello, No, everything bakes consistently, the center is smooth and the borders a bit crusty, but i like it that way.

I use it for making cakes, frosting, cookies, mashed potatoes, etc. I'm happy with its performance.

Yes! Yesterday I baked the pecan pie muffins in the pan and they turned out beautiful and with the hole in the middle of the muffins make them look like a little wreath! So happy with this pan and encourage all to buy this for your baking adventures :)

I have made heavy frostings (my daughter decorates cakes), bread and cookie doughs, all with great success. I love how smooth and creamy my frostings come out. You have to be sure the contents of the bottom of the bowl get incorporated by scraping well early on, but the final outcome is always very good.
