If you want a universal cake pan

Aside from your traditional cake pans…square, rectangle, and round…if you are looking for a good universal pan to invest in…I recommend…

I recommend the ” First And Ten Football Pan” by Wilton.

I am using it again today and it has reminded me how good of an investment it was. I have used it for doing Spider Man’s head and now we’re going to make a strawberry for my niece. But you could use it to make bread loaves (as shown in the image above) or other things as well. If you go to the Wilton website, you will find ideas for other uses as well.

So if you’re in the market for another pan and you have a few extra dollars, you might consider this pan (especially if you can find the pan on sale).

And because I am on a roll…if you have a large stand mixer and you are looking for the perfect spatula to get into the bottom of the bowl, Wilton takes care of that one too!

I bought the Wilton Silicone Stand Mixer Scraper as a total splurge and I can say that I do NOT regret this splurge. It makes quick work of emptying that large mixer bowl.
