On this publish, I’m sharing my straightforward solution to line cake pans with paper. No drawing outlines then chopping out rounds. Nope! It’s actually fast and simple.
The right way to line a cake pan (simply!)
Right here’s how I do it:
-
Tear off a sheet of baking paper / parchment paper.
-
Fold it in half.
-
Then fold in in half once more.
-
Then preserve folding till you kind a protracted pointy triangle.
-
Measure it towards the cake pan with the sharp finish in the midst of the pan.
-
Then snip the tip off.
-
Unfold and voila! Have a look at that, a near-perfect circle base in your cake-pan.
-
Grease the cake pan utilizing butter (sticks greatest) or oil spray (works however paper will slide a bit).
-
Press into the bottom.
-
Then tear off strips of paper and keep on with the partitions. My 20cm / 8” cake pan requires 2 full size strips plus a scrap to patch up a spot.
There you go! I hope you discover this handy.
And right here’s a video tutorial so you possibly can watch me do it:
Pre-cut paper rounds
Although, in case you are an avid baker, do you know you should purchase pre-cut paper rounds in various sizes? I’ve 20cm/8” ones and 23cm / 9” rounds. Tremendous helpful! I buy mine on-line.
Although to be sincere, weirdly, I default to chopping my very own. It’s simply behavior!. – Nagi x
PS Simply to share a little bit anecdote about this methodology: On the time I discovered how to do that, I actually thought I used to be the primary particular person on the earth to find this. I assumed I used to be so intelligent, and I applauded myself for developing with this helpful hack.
However a fast search on-line confirmed it’s been finished by professionals and residential cooks “ceaselessly”.
Ah nicely. In my thoughts, I used to be the pioneer of this!!
