I bought some strips online, they werent the Wilton ones, they had a velcro strip instead of the pins. I like them, and they were a lot cheaper than Wilton's about $5.00 I think. But what I hate is that they dont fit around my bigger pans! I do make my own, but I use mine a little differently. I cut up a stained bath towel, I also make the 4 inches and double it. I wet mine, wring out the water and then stick mine in the freezer while I mix up my cake. It just firms it up just enough to make it easier to wrap with. I use a large paper clip to secure them. They work great! |

Hmmm...thanks for all the tips about homemade bake even strips!! You can always pin two of the store bought ones together to make them longer if needed... |

I am definitely going to have to try going "stripless" on my Magic Line pans.
I replaced all my Wilton pans with Magic Line pans and was used to having to use the baking strips all the time, so just kept doing it. But I noticed that strips didn't work well with the 6" ML pan where I needed them with the 6" Wilton pan.
Darn.....guess I'll need to do a test cake, I'm sure hubby will be upset! |

I use wilton cake pans and as long as I bake my cakes in a 325 degree oven, I don't get domes. |

Good post! I've been wondering about baking strips. I'm going to try some "homemade" ones. |
