Using Silicone Bakeware

I bought a silicone baking pan and was wondering if I need to grease it? Do I have to put a cookie sheet under it when I bake with it? It seems so flimsy.

Don't grease them. Do put on a cookie sheet for stability.

I put a pan under in the oven and a plate in the microwave for ease is transferring or carrying it. Don't know about greasing cause that hasn't come up yet for me.

I Love the Silicone Bake ware! No need to treat it special, just use it like a regular pan!

I have silicone cupcake pans and I use cooking spray and a cookie sheet under them for easy transfer in and out of the oven.

I don't know if you have to grease them or not, but I would recommend setting them on a metal pan of some kind for ease of getting them in and out of the oven.

Using Silicone Bakeware

I just bought a blue, flexible, fluted bowl with a funnel in the middle, as used for angel food cake. I bought it at a thrift store and thought it was a Jello mold, but someone told me it is for baking cakes. Can anyone advise me how to use this? I am afraid of it melting in the oven. I believe it is made of silicone. I look forward to your replies. Thank you.

I have one of these blue silicone bundt cake pans, too. I really like it. Do NOT use no stick spray. The cake comes out very nicely after it is baked. Be sure to put it on a cookie sheet or pizza pan when you put it in the oven. It is too flexible to just be on the oven rack.
