Greasing your cake pan

I have found two ways of greasing a cake pan, that far surpass anything I have ever tried before. One is greasing the pan with vegetable shortening, then flouring int he usual manner. The vegetable shortening, actually repels the cake batter, meaning your cake literally falls out of the pan - you believe it, utnil you see it for yourself!.

The other is a product which costs $9.50 per bottle and is simply the best thing since sliced bread! It is one of my all time favourite things. My Mum loved it so much, she bought everyone she knew a bottle for Christmas. It's called CAKE RELEASE and is made by Wilton.

No need to grease and flour your baking pan - Cake Release coats in one step. Simply spread Cake Release lightly on pan bottom and sides with a pastry brush and fill with batter. Cakes release every time, giving you the ideal surface for decorating. Now in convenient dispensing bottle. Certified Kosher. Each 8 oz. container is enough to prepare 17 pans. Especially great for use with any of the Wilton character or shaped pans.
