Clean it after each use: Clean your cake pan thoroughly with hot water and dishwashing liquid. Rub with an abrasive-free sponge and remove each piece of dough remaining at the bottom of the mold.

Store your cake mold in a dry, dust-free place. Avoid stacking them on top of each other, as this can scratch them, especially for stainless steel molds.

Do not use sharp or pointed objects to cut the cake from the pan. Instead, use a silicone spatula to unmold it.

For metal molds, you can put them in the oven at 200°C for around 10 minutes to remove grease and cake residue.

How to grease a cake pan?

Before pouring your preparation into the cake mold, it is important to grease it well to prevent the cake from sticking.

If you stack them, put a sheet of parchment or wax paper between each mold to prevent them from scratching each other. Avoid storing cake molds in humid or hot places, as this can damage them and alter their quality and the material they are made from.

Does cake pan color affect baking?

This is a bit of a crazy question that a client asked us, but after some research it's worth exploring. In fact, the color of your cake mold will affect your baking. A black plate left in the sun stores more heat than a white plate, and it's the same for mussels.

So a black cake pan will bake your cake faster than a gray cake pan. For example if you bake a cookie, it will be softer with the gray color, for a sponge cake, it will be darker in a black mold, finally for a brownie, it will be softer with a gray cake mold.
