Can I use this pan to bake 'big' cup cakes?

I don't see why not. I've used it to make mini butter cakes rather than use a bundt pan. If you fill it 2/3 full it will puff up just like on smaller muffin pans. Happy baking!

I think they are not deep enough. I like them for small pies, little pizzas and scant cake batter.

the 6 cup cupcake pans are less than10"long and less than 7" wide. I have a small toaster oven and I don't think mine would cook well in it.The top coil would be too close to the muffin top.

I haven't tried but I'm absolutely sure cake mixes would work. This pan is just like a cupcake pan which people use cake mixes in all the time. The only difference is this pan would create a donut shape.

Having only used the pan with a 'donut' recipe, I can't say for certain. However, I would think if you don't overfill the cavity it should work. It is really just like any other 'cake' pan, except for the shape. That being said, possibly the cake batter is lighter or airier and the 'donut' could break apart. Sorry, I'm not much help!

No, it's only large enough for one muffin, or child size baking tins. I use Anchor Hocking glass oval pans with success,

I havent tried before but I guess yes u can cook anything that u can fit in this size since is a machine with 2 nonstick sides in cupcake shapes. And it works perfect!

You can bake any kind of cake in the bundt pan; however, I don't seem to ever get a cake out of it without tearing cake apart! I've followed directions carefully so hope others who purchase pan have better luck!

The pan is large enough but the corners are quite rounded you might have some trouble there. By the way I absolutely love the pans they are great for baking.

My plans changed so I returned mine. However, I bake in 6" cake pans, using a regular cake recipe. If you know how high the cake would usually rise, you can pretty much tell how much to put in each pan. I would do a test run, using 3 pans for one recipe, filling each pan no more than 1/2 full.

I agree with Christine. I also looked up what the pan looks like. It looks very similar to the BabyCakes, so you should be able to make it work.

Big enough to have to use 2 cake mixes. Also, cook top and bottom halves separately. The top part of the cupcake will cook quicker than the bottom half.

There are recipes out there for a 12 cup Bundt pan probably on the Food Channel site. There are also recipe books specializing in bundt cakes that call for this size. You will need to spend some time at the library or book store to check out these recipes. A lot of the boxed mixes specify the size of the bundt pan you should use. Anyway, if you are still afraid of over flow, a) you can bake it on a lined cookie sheet or like a jelly roll pan that has a lip or b) cut back on the batter and experiment a little bit c) call Nordic Ware customer service and discuss it with their support department. Their number is on line. Nordic Ware is a great product. I think you'll like it... super reliable. I'm never disappoint with any of the ones I have. Good Luck!

I don't think it will. It's not as big a pan as I thought it was before i bought it. I would bake the top separate from the bottom, because the cavities do not hold the same amount of cake batter.

I use a 13 x 9 baking pan a lot for lasagne and for cake.How do I find a convection oven that I can use this pan with?

Absolutely. I have had this pan for years. It is the best. Makes great cakes. Perfect for cakes that are high. I use Bakers Joy instead of shortening and flour. It is the same thing and you just spray it on. You can find it where they stock PAM.

Yes, this is really big, it should work out. I bake 9" cakes and there is still so much room left over. It's large.

No, too large. The measurements are 4.75 inches on top and 3 inches on the bottom. Standard cup cake tin is like 2 or 2.5 inches.
