Bake Even Cake Strips, 2 Pieces

This is my 2nd purchase of Wilton baking strips, the previous set lasted a few years and used regularly so I still consider them worth the outlay as every cake comes out evenly baked with no hard outer edge and no domed top. I have no idea why they are not more widely used in the UK as they are essential for a perfect bake.

I am bake quite regularly for fun and like many have been frustrated by the dreaded doming effect. I've tried hollowing the middle out and made my own strips from old tea towels but they were very fiddly to pin in place. Eventually, I've decided to give these a go. They are quite large when attached (2 strips) and easily cover an 8" tin with lots of spare so I reckon would go up to 9-10". These are a little stiff and fiddly the first use until you get the knack of it. Damp them down and tighten on your cake tin and they are good to go. I've used over a spring form tin and they work fine on these. I have now baked about 3-4 cakes using these. Often using a recipe I've used before that domed despite my best efforts to prevent it and each time they cake has come out flat. Yes there might be a bit of cracking but that is often the case but no dome and a nice flat top with non of the usually trimming needed. I usually combat any cracking by flipping the cake anyhow but upon doing so the cake has been totally level ready for decorating. I tend to decorate with fondant so a flat top is essential. I've been impressed with these strips and would definitely recommend as they cut out any messing and trimming which can lead to over trimming of you don't get it right first time!

I’m still getting used to baking with cake strips. The first time I used them the cake still had a done but I soon realised it was because I had placed them too low on the tin. Since moving them higher I’m getting much flatter tops which is great, I also find my cakes are coming out more moist and springy which is great. They are a little fiddly to attach to spring form tins (which are always my tins of choice) but the results are worth it. I’ve marked only one star for flavour as these are not an edible product...I would recommend this product for anyone who regularly bakes layered cakes.

I love baking as an hobby and just always thought domed cakes would be my future. My cousin asked me to make her wedding cake and so I did some research into getting flatter cakes and saw about these.May be a little dramatic to say they’ve change my life, but they’ve definitely changed my baking for the better! Cakes were lovely and flat and I got so many compliments on the wedding cake I made and these made all the difference. They’re a little fiddly once they’re wet but you get quicker at getting them into place the more you use them. Size wise I used them for 6” and 10” cakes with no issue and they’re not a bad price either. 10/10 would recommend!

Great

Bought these a while ago and just started to use them. Do a great job. Perfect size/depth for a sandwich tin and you get perfectly even rise. Wet them first by soaking in a bowl for a minute or so thats a given. if you have deeper pans use two even three. These enable you to bake a cake without having to level it off so no waste. It also helps it rise evenly and adds some moisture to ensure a moist cake

I have cooked many, many cakes and whilst I would like to say that I waste a lot by cutting them level I do not. because what actually happens is I eat the pieces I cut off. which is not really a problem for me but when I have to cut a cake at its lowest point to level it off I often have to bake an extra sponge to get the desired height in a complete cake. was sceptical of these strips as some of the reviews were less than complimentary but had to try them for myself, and I must say I was very impressed. I let them soak for a good 30 minutes then fastened them to the tin (you can connect several together for larger bakes if required). I sat nervously watching through the oven door as the cake evenly rose to a height I have only previously wished for. the strips do brown slightly after a couple of uses, but then you are putting something wet into a hot oven and that's what happens. regardless, there is no sign of them falling apart and the discolouration doesn't affect their functionality at all. the only downside is I now have less spare cake to eat!

Where have these been all my life! I didn't even k ow these existed until I was watching a baking video on YTAfter soaking in water for 5 mins, put these around your cake tins and that's it!Your cakes will be light and fluffy, evenly bakes with no hard edges and flat tops. No more domes to cut off!This makes it so much easier for putting your cakes together and decorating themOnce you bake with these, you will never be able to bake without them again

This item was recommended by one of the chefs i follow. I decided to give them a try I love to bake and the level cake layers are important when you want a nice appearance. They worked perfectly! i am very happy with the purchase and will continue to use the every time i bake a cake.

I like the product + honest brand makes it lovely I am homebaker I regularly use strips, don't think twice gi for it #happybaking😊✌️

Wilton bandes pour cuisson. Plus de gâteau involontairement bombé. Très pratique pour les pièces à décorer.

Mai più torte bruciate o con i bordi duri.Consigliata dal canale di cucina YouTube "preppy kitchen" ed é stato uno degli acquisti migliori in cucina.Le mie torte a strati vengono fuori perfette senza bisogno di dover tagliare via i bordi che prima mi uscivano sempre duri.Unica accortezza: difficile da usare con tortiere a cerniera, meglio quelle senza.

The cake raised evenly and sides were not brown. It is a useful one for flat cakes.. I recommend it
