I received my pan cleaned & seasoned it, baked a cake in it and the cake smelled like silicone. Will this go away?

I didn't notice that with my pan. Be sure you get the HIC brand. It's all silicone and not a mix of other "stuff."

I've not had this problem. How I seasoned mine was to first wash it, then I heated it in a stove at 300 degrees F. Then let it cool and washed it with a mixture of baking soda and water. I guess it worked, no silicone smell on the brownie mix.

hi, it smells a little until you actually leave it out and cook for the first time. the smell was no real bother compared to other much smellier items I purchased in recent years, although not from that some supplier. the HIC brand is stronger, easier to clean and all.

Deal with it and use it. It will go away. The case is rubber. It obviously going to smell like it.

get some barkeepers friend. It will remove it right away. I use it on my all clad pans, and it doesn't disappoint

the same thing happened to my pan and I just cover it with aluminum foil then spray that with cooking spray. turns out completely fine PLUS there's no cleaning that way. :)

Yes! That is the pan being seasoned. Do not try to clean the black off. The black is the nonstickness. Only clean the pan with water. Don't use a soap/detergent. It is an awesome pan!

I would use a nylon spatula and sponge with a little soap and gently rub it out. Clean it after each use carefully as mentioned after turning it off for about ten mins.

I don't think it is silicone, but a kind of plastic, I have baked a pie and other things that ran over and burned to a crisp on the spillmatt. I just left it in until it cooled and it washed right off under running water. I left it in my oven when I moved. It looked great and worked great, now I need to order another one.

I have washed my pan in the dishwasher, no problem. Haven't used it in the oven yet, but I'm sure it will be fine. Hope this helps.

I am not really sure what happened with your pan. Is it a different recipe than you used in the past? That might have something to do with it. I have used mine 3 times already and I never sprayed the pan or anything. I would contact the company and see what they tell you to do. I hope this helps.

Mine didnt have a rubber smell, thats weird. But I would probably try hand washing it with dish soap or vinegar and air dry

I wouldn't think so. Just be sure you grease and flour it before baking in it next time. I have put mine in dishwasher and didn't seem to bother it. I have had mine for many years (30+). Try washing it by hand to see if that helps any. Sometimes the new dishwashing soaps leave a residue on things.

I used mink oil to soften it up. Of course that puts in it's own odor. Then I let it bake in the sun, both sides for a few hours. Did it all again and it's odor is very quiet now.

For the outside of the pan, yes, but not the inside. The polish has an ammonia smell. Also, when you wash the pans the soap and water would eventually reverse your polish job. What exactly are you wanting to correct on your pans? Rust? Fingerprints? Water spots? Or something else?

What you should do is take the handle off and see how it is connected, it is a removable handle it is designed that way.....then you will feel better ...it is a very nice pan :)

I baked directly in the pan. I'm not sure how the cooking might be affected using a dish inside the pan.

Might be some burnt on residue from your previous cookout. Make sure you wash you sheet on both sides real good after each use with warm soapy water

Mine doesn't smell anymore--I have used it for 2 months. Now it smells like flour. It could be that it was just made and you are smelling the glue or just the raw materials. Coat it with flour, let it set overnight and them brush it out--Hope that helps?
