Question from a long-time lurker, sometime poster:
Does anyone has first-hand experience with silicone bakeware ?
I have been offered some at a v. good price... but it looks like plastic -
it scares me !!
Q's:
* what's it like to clean - does stuff stick to it, or come off with a
relative wipe ?
* Does it retain those pretty pastel colours it's sold in, or do they become
dank and grungy with use ?
* leeching ?? Is it 'safe' ??
TIA.

I got the "bundt pan" a few weeks ago, and am very pleased with it.
Just follow the directions! As to your questions -- it's easy to
clean. Just wash and dry. Nothing sticks to it so long as you follow
the directions, such as spraying it with PAM. So far the color has
stayed the same. As to safety, it is rated as a good thing by the FDA,
so I trust it.

thanks for that.
So which do you prefer - conventional metal pans ... or the silicone pan ?
( I must admit I had not heard of Bundt ware ... so did a Google .. and
couldn't find any silicone ware in their range - so I hope we're talking
about the same stuff ? )
For the record: this is the kind of stuff i'm looking at:

Comments from anyone else that has perhaps owned for a little longer ?

In addition to Bundt ware, there are generic bundt pans made by a whole
lotta people in places you have probably never heard of. That is what
she was referring to - a type of cake pan, not a brand.

um, ok - but that still doesn't make it any clearer for me.
I type in "bundt pan", and all roads lead to : http://www.nordicware.com/
- oh, and lots of stuff on the creator guy, sho died.
If it's a type of cake pan, then I am at a loss to what type of cake a
"bundt" is.
But regardless, all I wanted to know ( as in my OP ), is if it was indeed
made of silicone ;)

A "Bundt" Cake Pan, makes a cake that looks somewhat like a doughnut.
Another name would be "Ring" Cake Pan.

I've never encountered these before...they look great,but I can't believe they'll stay that way!
I also wonder if they get scratched easily,making them difficult to clean?

They also seem pretty expensive,Farringdon Flexible Bakeware in the Uk do a 12 cup cap mould for £7.50 (about 15 dollars at a guess ) whilst these people charge almost 40 dollars.

I have always called it a "tube pan." The bundt pan is just a fancy shaped
tube pan.

Sort of.
Bundt cake is not just another tube cake. It has a filling that is baked
into it.

Yes, but I was talking about the bundt PAN. I have always considered it a
tube pan. I admit that I'm not into the whole bundt cake thing. I would
guess that you could bake one in a standard tube pan - the kind used for
angel food cake, instead of one of the fancy "cathedral" style cast aluminum
pans. Maybe I've overlooked something?

Tunnel of fudge is a good recipe, as I recall, but it's not the only type
of Bundt cake you can make. A couple years ago, I bought a set of baking
pans. Angel food and Bundt. Nordic ware included a recipe booklet that
was chock-ful of every kind of cake you could imagine, almost all of them
intended for the Bundt-shaped pan.
I posted this February 12, 2002:

Well since they keep letting drugs on the market that kill people and make

I agree about the FDA, but silicone has been used for medical devices for at
least 35 years that I know of. I'd assume it is safe or something would
have been found by now.

You can use a bundt pan for any type of cake. You can probably use a tube
pan for a bundt recipe, but with the wider flat bottom, I have no idea how
it would turn out. Probably taste just fine, but may not look as pretty
when cut.

There have been a lot of lawsuits (I think even a class action suit) by
women who were harmed when their silicone breast implants broke and the
silicone spread to all kinds of weird places in their bodies and had to be
surgically removed..
That's why I chose saline. If they break, the fluid is just absorbed into
the body.

That is a different form of silicone and yes, it has caused problems from
implants. In a solid, it does not leach anything undesirable. Tubing and
molded parts of silicone are inert.

Thanks for the additional information. I think it'll make people more
comfortable using this product. :)

Yeah, I had planned to bring a rum cake to a party back in October, but I
had loaned my bundt pan to a friend and hadn't gotten it back, which is a
small detail I had forgotten when I planned to bake this cake. The host had
heard about my rum cakes, so once I told him what I was making, there was no
changing!!! The only pan I had was my angel food tube pan, so I had to make
do.
I covered the bottom in foil to prevent leakage, but then I had to remember
that the bottom would actually BE the bottom, unlike a bundt pan. The cake
was wider but flatter and seemed denser than had I baked it in my bundt pan.
It wasn't as pretty, either, because there wasn't the design from the pan
molded in.

I agree. I just wanted to point out the faith in the FDA. so far I only have one
of the oven mits and it works well.

that was a total fiasco and has later been proven to be false. it was a typical

Lesson to be learned - If you somehow end up with a silicone
baking pan surgically implanted, go get it removed soonest.
Somehow I don't think having some of it rub off is quite the
same thing though.

As cookware, saline sucks though. Okay for making stock and
stew, but the stuff tends to run off onto the stove so you
need to use a redundnt extra kettle with it. ;^)
When I read the topic "Silicone bakeware" I thought to
Silplat pads from France. They are sheets of silicone
something that always fells greasy, that can be put in the
over, that can be put in the dishwasher, that must have
some magic melted into their formula.

The instructions which came with my Silpats said *not* to put them in the
dishwasher. No big deal, they wipe clean easily.

ROFLMAO! Hey, I was responding to a post that discussed medical devices.
Fake boobies are medical devices, are they not? ;)

It's even harder to bake with the stuff. Falls right through the grates.
Smart-ass!

My complaint about silicone bakeware is that it seems to
prevent browning on the parts that are surrounded by the
silicone. For some things that may not be important.
But the browning adds a lot of flavor in some things.

So I know know the original replier bought siliconeware shaped as a bundt
pan. Solved ! :)

I have one type of silicone muffin pans. They are not rigid so need
to be put on a baking sheet of some kind for ease of moving. There are
several makers though. There is an infomercial with a website..
www.buysmartware.com I think that's a complete address.... I
don't know how good it is. A friend has another brand that she loves,
but still sprays with baking spray though. I bought another type that
also requires spraying. I have the cooking sheet, that I haven't tried
yet....I don't make cookies often. HTH....Sharon in SW Ontario Canada

I have quite a variety of these pans that I purchased for our motor home since
they are light weight and store in a very small place. So far I've used the
muffin pan to make popovers and have used the round cake pan to cook a few
casseroles. When the pans are full they need to be placed on something sturdy
to get them from the counter to the oven. In my motor home I use a
micro-convection oven so I just place the pan on the rack and transfer all to
the oven. So far I've been very happy with these pans. The directions state
that they can be used in any oven up to a temperature of 400º and don't need to
be greased.

I thought that they didn't need greasing either, but the first batch
of muffins I made wouldn't come out until they had cooled down quite a
bit. I then had to buy a second pan so I could bake a dozen at once,
but I started to spray a bit of Pam and they come out pretty good even
when they were hot. ....Sharon
