wilton 3d cupcake pan - 29 May 2008, 11:28
so i saw this awesome giant cupcake pan and i HAD to get it edit: i saw this cupcake pan on a u.s blog and spent ages looking for an aussie supplier. i usually buy my cake pans from Cake Deco but i just happened to find the pan on ebay from the EXACT same company using an ebay store! and half the things i bought from them were cheaper! bah go forth kids! Cake Deco Ebay check back every now and then cos atm the cupcake pan aint there
ive attempted creating a giant cupcake by carving a cake which kinda didnt work out cos the crumbs went everywhere so thought id give this a go… ready?
grease the pan with HEAPS of cooking oil or your cake will become stuck and youll lose the details.
i was reading some forums where ppl have said the top bit of the cupcake bakes faster than the bottom because its smaller and theres less batter in there so i put another pan half filled with water under the lid
level the cakes…
dig a hole…
and fill with cream! mmm cream and i chucked in some mango and peach
heh reassemble
and ice away! i let the base un-iced so you could see the details of the ridges lol this pan is awesome and ill most likely use it to make jelly too…
Hi Suze,
I love that Cupcake Pan. Where did you purchase it from?
Cheers

That’s so cool! I’d love to see a photograph of the finished cupcake against something that we can measure its size with, just to emphasise how big it is. :)
— Katie May 29, 05:35 PM #I’ve just got that pan too! What cake recipe did you use? Was it the one that came with the tin? Cos mine didn’t turn out as nice as yours!
— Mel May 29, 05:49 PM #this is damn cool! i miss your cupcakes!
— nadnut May 29, 06:59 PM #Looks so cool! Who are the lucky people who got to tuck in to it? You should’ve taken a picture of it next to a normal sized cupcake, for comparison! :)
— Y May 29, 08:06 PM #katherine: hey dude its cute hey! i got it off ebay ill edit my post to chuck up a link for ya =D
— chocolatesuze May 29, 09:55 PM #katie: but alas we ate it! but the mix i used for the giant pan was enough for 24 normal sized cupcakes
mel: i used a normal butter pound cake recipe cos i didnt realli trust the recipe that came with it hehe but yeah buttercake works best cos its denser
nadnut: heh come for another visit dude!
y: lol uni ppl ate half and then i gave the rest to the staff at rise aw no time for the normal sized cupcake comparison!
Muahaha.. that must have tasted real good coz the Cream+Mango+Peaches sounds awfully delicious ;)

— Albany Jane May 29, 11:26 PM #oho that cone-like structure is the TOP! What a waste of the real top of the cupcake! To be honest I thought the ‘cone’ looked more like a nipple in the first picture….. lol hehe
— Tammy May 30, 01:40 PM #That looks great. I’m going to try using mine again. I think they’re so much fun to decorate!
— Lorraine E May 30, 07:25 PM #You’ve inspired me to drag mine out…it’s still sitting in the cupboard unused!
