Wilton Bake Even Cake Strips, 2 Pieces, Purple

These little strips are amazing, I have been making cakes for thirty years and now Iam making a 12 inch carrot cake for my sons wedding. I want it to be perfect and used these strips And the most perfect cake I have ever baked came out, flat top (no cutting the dome off leaving crumbs) perfectly cooked (i gave it 15 more mins in the oven).I will never bake a cake again without these bake even strips again, wish I had known about them years ago, it would have saved many disasters. If you want a perfect cake use these.

These are great and really work to keep the edges of my sponge cakes from burning.

Update: I purchased the long baking strips and am pretty satisfied with the quality and how well the product works.The product itself is decently priced but the issue was I did not read the description carefully enough and I thought the package contained six long strips instead of it having three different sized baking strips. So be careful not to make the same mistake.

Where have these been all my life! I didn't even k ow these existed until I was watching a baking video on YTAfter soaking in water for 5 mins, put these around your cake tins and that's it!Your cakes will be light and fluffy, evenly bakes with no hard edges and flat tops. No more domes to cut off!This makes it so much easier for putting your cakes together and decorating themOnce you bake with these, you will never be able to bake without them again

I love baking as an hobby and just always thought domed cakes would be my future. My cousin asked me to make her wedding cake and so I did some research into getting flatter cakes and saw about these.May be a little dramatic to say they’ve change my life, but they’ve definitely changed my baking for the better! Cakes were lovely and flat and I got so many compliments on the wedding cake I made and these made all the difference. They’re a little fiddly once they’re wet but you get quicker at getting them into place the more you use them. Size wise I used them for 6” and 10” cakes with no issue and they’re not a bad price either. 10/10 would recommend!

Bought these a while ago and just started to use them. Do a great job. Perfect size/depth for a sandwich tin and you get perfectly even rise. Wet them first by soaking in a bowl for a minute or so thats a given. if you have deeper pans use two even three. These enable you to bake a cake without having to level it off so no waste. It also helps it rise evenly and adds some moisture to ensure a moist cake

I hate having to but newspaper around the cake tin and tie with string, it's a chore I hate. So I started researching as I was sure there was something out there that was easier. I found it! and have been very pleased with the result, all you need do is make sure you wet the strips, squeeze them until the excess water is out, there are various sizes in the pack. I used two, one above each other on a deeper baking tin. Sure enough it works, no more over baked cakes on the outer rim. I have only made madeira cakes with it up to now, but I will certainly be using them for my Christmas cake this year, without having burnt edges. A winner!!

I’m still getting used to baking with cake strips. The first time I used them the cake still had a done but I soon realised it was because I had placed them too low on the tin. Since moving them higher I’m getting much flatter tops which is great, I also find my cakes are coming out more moist and springy which is great. They are a little fiddly to attach to spring form tins (which are always my tins of choice) but the results are worth it. I’ve marked only one star for flavour as these are not an edible product...I would recommend this product for anyone who regularly bakes layered cakes.
