Has anyone used these molds for no-bake Paleo type tartlet recipes? I am curious if that would work! Thanks so much!

Elena, I have not used this pan for the recipe you mentioned. Is it an egg, meat, cheese no crust type recipe? I would think it would work well - maybe use a little butter in the molds first, and let the baked tartlet cool in the pan. If it's a simple enough recipe with common ingredients, I could make it up and try it.

I have used these for eggs and they stick terribly, even using generous amounts of oil or butter (tried both). After three tries i gave up. I have made eggs in silicone cupcake pans made by a different company without the sticking issue.

I use these pans for all sorts of items. I often make eggs with no crust and with a non-stick cooking spray they work quite well. You need to oil them after the first was in order to "season" them anyway so the cooking spray just adds to that. I have never had a problem with anything sticking to these.

The cholcolate is excellent for melting. I do not know about reshaping with mold trays. I use it for cholcolate covered pretzels and it is the best by far.

I just tried two different batches of jello in these silicone molds with no luck. I could not get the jello out of the mold intact. Maybe someone knows a trick?

Yes, i melted chocolate chips and used this mold. The mold worked great! You can't tell in the picture, but they even have ridges... very funny! I recommend using better chocolate so they don't melt in your hand.

I have frozen pies in them. I have never used them from freezer to a hot oven. I would be scared to do that. The pie pops out of the glass dish easily and when I baked the pie I did not use the dish. I would not trust them to be able to do that. There is no writing on the bottom of the glass dish except the number 13. Do not know what that means

I just had to tell you about Powders being sealed in any canning jars - Put a cupcake baking form -turned upside down (open area facing powder) then put lid & use Food Save Jar Sealer. - Or you might could use paper towel folded over. This just keeps the powder from coming out of the lid.I did that once (forgot to put anything over the powder - but just a little bit of the powder came out) - and yes it sealed very tightly which I discovered a week later when I needed the powder (was tapioca flour)

I would not bake them. I have not tried, as would be afraid they would melt. I've added them to sugar cookies after they are baked and still warm and they held shape and luster. They are beautiful on frosted cupcakes.

I am using these molds for soap molds but I bake also and would suggest using a "heavier, more dense" cake to use in these molds. Make sure they are cool before you remove. Good luck!

These bakers are used to make rustic, artisan breads. The tops are not supposed to look smooth and 'pretty'. They are to look wonderfully crusty, bursting open, and smelling like Nonna's oven. To me, the breads are beautiful. If you want a smooth crust, use a regular metal or glass baking pan.

Yes your recipe will work, but remember that is a removeable bottom so the recipe cannot be liquid intense. Needs to have a crust of some type or will leak

I used these and had no problems with baking time. I actually only use the baking time on recipe as a base. I always check in less time than called for. Baking times can vary with different ovens. Check when you start to smell the bread. I always test cakes and breads with a toothpick in center or think wooden skewers. I really don't think you'll have a problem. I made them for a bake sale and they were great. Good Luck.

It would work perfectly for cheesecake as well for no bake goods also, great mold for oven & freezer or refrigerator! Try jello or mini quiche or even hony butter cornbread bites!

Hey PT, I bought these diamond molds specifically for making truffles. This mold is perfect. The size is good and my truffles looked store bought. They have always tasted good but this is the first time they have looked so good. Let me know how it turns out. Teresa

Thanks for the replies. Haven't had good results freezing store bought hot dog buns but hopefully these will keep better. I had the same thought about using foil. Haven't used the pan yet but may try a half recipe after the first one, that fifth one can always go to the birds, lol.

possibly, I have other silicone bread molds that are good for high temps, I think these would be good also. Have fun cooking brains!

Jonathan,Thanks for the note about loading your no-knead breads to your pot!! That is a very special application, but one that I also use. Very cool!Gary@EXO/Super Peel

I haven't tried baking with these, but they are great when you're hiking and craving protein, but there is a slight after taste to them. I think they would not be the best choice for baking.....
