I just ordered a silicone covers the village pan on Amazon. For some reason it won’t get here until Wednesday, that seems more like three or four days than two which is what prime is supposed to be.
Oh well, I can’t wait to try it. I have had good luck with the silicone large Bundt pan I have, after I figured out that you had to let the cake cool completely before trying to remove it. So I was thinking the silicone might be easier with the teeny tiny little village cakes since they will be must much firmer when they are cold and I could sort of wiggle the silicone mold a little bit to get them out. With the Metal pan, they would have to come out while still warm and they would be softer and more likely to not come out in one piece. At least that was my thinking. Not to mention the silicon one was much cheaper and I also get a gingerbread house kit with it :-)
Funny. I just decided on the metal because the reviews said it you spray enough on them and let the cakes cool completely, the buildings come right out when you bang the pan.
The silicon is a better buy, hope it works for you. Except for my original pan, I will never get my money's worth out of the other two. Cool you get a gingerbread house kit with it, too!
So have fun. All I need right now are some more ink cartridges. The cheap stuff often comes empty or dried up, black ones are the worst,, will try another place. The Dell ones are just too expensive!
If you can, please post a picture of your cake and house if you make that, too!
