I'm having conflicting advise, some people think that cooking spray with flour dusted over is best, another said to use the wilten cake release ( i dont like the taste it gives to the cake) and another is the vegetable shortening with flour dusted over top. Please, if you have a better way to grease a pan, tell me. Whats the best way to do it, and whats your favorite way? Thanks!!!

I have used many different types of pan grease. You yourself will have to try alot to find the one you like. JMO



I read this one on here. I mix equal parts of Crisco, flour and vegetable oil. I keep it in a plastic container with a lid on and use a pastry brush to coat my pans. Works like a charm EVERY time. (And there's no fusing with cutting parchment or waxed paper!)

i like to just line the bottom with parchment and spray the sides with a cooking spray then dusted with flour. that works best for me. when the cake is done, i just run a knife around the sides and it just pops right out. then all you gotta do is peel the parchment off.



I use either a heavy dose of non-stick spray (usually store brand version of Pam). OR a heavy greasing with Crisco.
Crisco works prefectly for me 100% of the time, but I'm often too lasy and would rather just spray!
(NO flour or parchemnt with either).




I have the cake release, and it works very well, but can get pricey. I made the cake release. It didn't work well for me. We had a couple of fights! I just bought the crisco spray with flour in it, and I am in love!! It works excellent, for me.

IF its about ease AND preference... Crisco for Baking Spray (with flour)
if its about cost and whats lying around, then I use a clean paper towel dabbed in Crisco and dust with flour.... I have lots more to do and am not gonna find the time to cut flipping circles no matter how it works LOL
kudos to u that do
but I love my spray now that its made with flour added!

Crisco with flour or Wilton spray works perfect every time. Baker's Joy never works for me and I do not have the time to try another method.


Over a year ago I read the homemade cake release recipe on here. I have been using it ever since. It is the equal parts oil, shortening, and flour recipe.
It works wonders and is cheap.
Ditto....I used to grease and flour my pans, but have never looked back!
