How much batter goes into each pan to bake a cake....Do you use an entire cake mix or only part of one??

TIA

Course 2 starts this Monday!!

One box will fit into both pans. But, you don't need to use the pans till your last class. I just finished Course II this week. Have fun!

Wilton.com has a chart that tells you how much batter, how many it will serve, etc. There is also one on here.
I believe it was in articles. I looked it up the other day for someone else.
Cake Baking, Cutting & Serving Guide - 2 in. Deep Pans This is the article you need. Don't know how to post the link, but just go to article page and you will find it.

Funny thing I got up early this morning to bake my cake for this weekend and used the oval pans from Course II. I added pudding, s. cream and rum to my mix and got the two pans + 3 cupcakes. I did trim a little from each pan so if I had made 5 cupcakes instead it probably would have been perfect. HTH

Yes, one cake mix will fit into both pans. It makes a very tall take! If you doctor the mix, you will get more batter.

I have used these pans twice and had problems with my cake falling. it is the same recipe I use in all my other pans, and have never had a problem with it. I thought I was the only one, but then one of my classmates had the same problem. Also with a recipe she has used before with no problems.

Are we the only ones? What would cause this if we haven't had problems in any other pans (and I have used round, square, sheet, hex, heart, and petal with no problems-all in the same oven)

Thanks

I had problems with these pans also. My friend and I have been taking classes together and have come to the conclusion that this is the reason why you can't just buy the pans. I found that if I put the flower nail in the pan, it bakes up just fine. Without the nail, my cake gets brown outside and still soupy on the inside.

Gosh.... I love those pans, and have used them probably 50 times with no problems. I use enhanced mixes~~~~~ If I only had one pair of pans....they'd be my favorites!!!!!!

By the way you can buy the oval pans, the oval pans come in a set of one per size, 7 3/4" x 5 3/4", 10 3/4"x 7 7/8", 13 1/2" x 9 7/8", and 16 1/2 x 12 3/8". They are all very nice pans.

I wonder what the problem could be, I've used those pans alot to and never had any problems at all with them.
