Coloured Silicon Bakeware

[horseshoes]

Hi, Has anyone used the new brightly coloured silicon bakeware. i was fancying getting some, but I was wondering if it kept its colour. Please let me know what you think.

ive got a lot of cupcake and muffin cases, theyve been handwashed and put through the dishwasher and show no signs of fading

Thanks Red. There was a lovely set on offer at work last week, you know, where they leave books etc and everyone has a chance to look and order; I didn't go for them and now I'm sorry. I'll ask the chap who comes round on Friday if he can bring them again.

This silicon stuff is very resilient to colour-changing. It's available in lots of places now (eg Wilkinsons etc) and probably a lot cheaper than from a catalogue!

I saw them in the book mans bits too. :-)

Actually it's "silicone" BTW. Silicon is an element.

I'm really sorry I didn't get them - they were lovely; cup cakes, and 2 larger ones (I'm sure one of them was heart shaped). My grand-daughter will especially enjoy helping with such lovely colours! I'm delighted to see this whole afternoon tea-time thing is all the fashion. I LOVE afternoon tea!

I have tried a couple of different makes of silicon bakeware

The cupcake cases - cakes always stick, the cake cases - cakes always stick.

the only thing I find them useful for is pastry. It never sticks and unlike the metal pie tins my pastry is always browned, crispy (not soggy) and the pies do not stick.

I'd hope the colour was stay fast, otherwise what is it leeching into your food !
