I have seen a few items on ebay for giant cupcakes and can't decide whether to buy a mould or a tin such as wiltons giant cupcake tin.

I have the wilton Dimensions giant cupckae and have used it several times.It is really nice.I have heard the silicone ones are flimsy and not that good.

Ditto on the silicone pan. A friend of mine bought it and had a horrible time with it.

I just saw Nordicware has one out too, but it is a bit smaller than Wilton's. I have the Wilton one and after a few tries can now get it to bake evenly. But I still think it should've been 2 seperate pans.

I have both the Wilton and the orher one(name escapes me) I like the Wilton Bottom and the other one top so I use them both

are the tins and moulds all the same size or is one larger than the other?

I have Wilton, which I like...but it definitely should have been seperate pans. If you try to cook both halves at the same time the top part will be cooked long before the base part.

Can you tell me the dimensions of the wilton pan?

I made a giant cupcake with the Wilton Pan recently. It's in my photos. I baked the base separately from the top. I did put a coffee filter in the side not being used. I'd heard about the baking times being different. This worked out fine. Don't have the dimensions, but you can see in my photos what size it is.

You'd think Wilton would have checked the pan for baking before selling it to the public. To me that's bad buiness. Why waste money on something that doesn't do what it's supposed too.
