Someone handed me a flexible rose bundt pan and asked me to bake a Birthday cake. Can someone tell me if I need to grease and flour it or spray it? What temperature do I bake at? I was considering a red velvet cake and maybe using red candy melts to make some type of frosting. Has anyone got an idea??? Help, help!!! icon_surprised.gif

I have used a flexible pan not too long ago in the shape of a star. I can't remember 100%, but I think you are not supposed to grease and flour it. I wish I could remember exactly what I did because I don't want to give you the wrong information. I will say, however, that the cake turned out beautifully, not a crumb stuck to the pan! Hopefully someone else will know for sure.

Thanks. It probably certainly couldn't hurt to do that, I wouldn't think. icon_rolleyes.gif

No grease is needed in the flexible silicone pans. It helps if you have a rack that fits into a sheet pan, then you can move the cake easier. It also helps it bake more evenly if air can circulate on the bottom.

Let the cake cook to allow the surface to detach from the pan.

Bake at the normal temperature, most cakes are 325.

Thanks Jo. I remember having the flexible muffin pan before but I couldn't remember any of the specifics except that it was SO flexible that when I took them out of the oven, the pan gave away and the muffins slipped out on the floor.
