Silicone Giant Cupcake Pan

Giant Cupcake Pan for One Big Party Cupcake

Every birthday has a round cake. A giant cupcake is the one people take pictures of. Building one by hand from stacked layers takes hours of carving, though, and a giant cupcake pan does that part for you.

It's a 3-piece silicone giant cupcake mold, basically a large cupcake pan that bakes one cupcake cake about the size of a layer cake. There's a deep base shaped like a cupcake liner, a swirled top that looks like a big frosting peak, and a removable insert that leaves a hollow in the base. Fill that hollow with ice cream, whipped cream, pudding, jelly or candy, then stack the top on and decorate. A show-stopping cake with no carving and a surprise inside.

How do you use a silicone cupcake pan this big?

1. Set the base and the top on a flat baking sheet. Silicone is flexible, so it needs the support.
2. Grease the mold lightly and place the insert in the base if you want a filling.
3. Fill both parts about two thirds full.
4. Bake at a lower temperature for longer than a normal cake, and test the middle with a skewer.
5. Let everything cool in the mold, peel the silicone away, then fill, stack and decorate.

If the outside browns before the middle is done, your oven is too hot. Big cakes need lower heat and more time.

Cupcake cake decorating ideas

• A chocolate base with a pink frosted top and sprinkles, the classic look.
• An ice cream filling: fill the hollow, freeze, then add the top.
• A candy surprise that spills out when you cut the first slice.
• Two flavors, one for the base and one for the top.

It's a favorite for birthdays, baby showers, smash cakes and themed parties.
