Rubber/silicone cookware?

I think it is made of some sort of high temp silicone or something like that, but I have seen some cupcake pans that were pliable. Basically, you just pop the cupcake out. Has anyone used these? They look like they would be very helpful.
 
I have not used these, but I have seen them at places like Crate & Barrel and was intrigued.

I'll be interested to see if anyone has good experiences with them.

I also wonder if they're harder to clean.
 
I just purchased a couple fancy cake molds - but I haven't used them yet. They make it look real simple on TV - I'll let you know!
 
I didn't think so - I really liked the designs and I figured I would get a lot of use out of them. I'll find out when I try to remove my first cake from the mold! Then I may change my mind and say they were too expensive and a waste of time money and energy!
:p
 
I thought they were a little pricey as well, but I suppose if you use them more than I would, that it would probably be a wise investment. Please keep us informed, because I just might have to get some. ;)
 
I've heard that they're a pain to get in and out of the oven b/c they're so flexible (even though there are those metal racks for them) and that storing them they attract a lot of dust and static.
 
I just get a cup-set.
My friend gave me as gift.
She is kitchen addict.
Thats great anyway.
 
We have 2 silicone spatulas and we use all.the.time. They work great!
 
silicone bakeware

:cool: I have a square silicone pan and my husband put gooey enchiladas in it to bake and when we were finished the pan barely needed rinsing. The food tasted awesome and released from the pan without any sprays or butter. I was very impressed. The price is starting to come down on the silicone bakeware and I think if you just put the pans on a cookie sheet on something ovenproof and solid you will have great results as well. I think I will now purchase some cake pans and muffin pans.

I've wondered about those too but been too scared to actually try them. Guess I'm just used to using my own pans and any change is hard to come by. I might see about getting one to try if people have had good luck with them. (I would assume they work just fine or else they wouldn't still be on the market. *shrug*)
 
I just got some silicon pot holders for Christmas, and I'm anxious to see how they work. They could also be used to hold hot dishes on the table, and they are also easy to keep clean. That's the problem with my fabric pot holders; they get batter and such on them and I always have to launder them. The silicone will just wipe clean.
 
I find the silicone pot holders a bit too floppy and also a bit slippery; they're harder to use than cloth pot holders.

They do work perfectly well as trivets though.
 
I had been wanting to get some of these. Was also worried that they seemed flimsy.

I was interested in te cookie sheets and maybe cupcake ones.

Putting them on a a reg cookie sheet does sound like it would take care of the flimsy aspect.
 
Thanks for the review loubear! I'm tempted to give these a try.
