Novelty pie pans come in various shapes and sizes, from cartoon characters to seasonal shapes. They can be three-dimensional or flat, and some are designed for special cakes like pies or cupcakes. Non-stick pans are recommended for easy removal.
The types of novelty pie pans range from pans shaped like popular cartoon characters to pans in seasonal shapes. Some novelty pans are three-dimensional shapes while others are flat. The pans range in size from miniature pans that make several small cakes to large pans. Some types of cake pans are designed for making special cakes, such as pies or cupcakes.
Novelty cake shapes usually appeal to younger children. Many novelty baking pans are shaped like popular children’s television and cartoon characters. The pots can also come in other shapes that kids like, like a sports car or a train. Other common novelty shapes include a butterfly, flower, or numbers, which can be used to bake a cake in the shape of the person’s age.
Seasonal cake pans are also available. Cake pans in the shape of a Christmas tree are common. A person may find pans that make a single, large cake or that create several cakes in the shape of a miniature tree. Other seasonal bakers make pies shaped like turkeys, bunnies, or leaves.
Some novelty cake pans have three-dimensional effects. The pans feature ridges that give the finished cake a three-dimensional texture. A common example is the basic bundt pan, which creates a ring-shaped cake, with an uneven texture. Some donut-shaped cake pans are shaped like a rose or even a castle. A person can also find miniature bundle pans that come in many different shapes, including holiday shapes like Christmas trees.
Miniature cake pans are also available for making full-sized cupcakes or mini cupcakes. Some pans will pop cakes, which are round balls of cake placed on a lollipop stick and dipped in frosting. Other pans will make donut-shaped cakes.
A person can also purchase new pans that make cakes in two separate pieces that are supposed to be joined together. One pan features an area to pour the batter for the bottom of the large cupcake shape and another area to pour the batter to make the frosting portion of the cupcake, out of the cake batter. Other great novelty pans include two areas for pouring batter to make a pumpkin pie or a beehive pie.
There are non-stick pans available that make it easier to remove the cake without damaging the picture. If the pans aren’t nonstick, the baker will need to use a lot of oil or butter to help release the cake without damage. The non-stick function is particularly important on pans with relief or three-dimensional details.
