I want to make a flower pot and fill it with cookies on sticks. I don't want to try to carve a flower pot, so I was wandering if it's doable to bake it in a ceramic flower pot with a heating core in it? If I can do this, how do I get the cake out of the pot once baked? icon_confused.gif

I have never done this before....but I would think you would need to prepare the pot well and use some kind of pound cake. I think you would just turn it over to get it out.

You will need to be careful because the pot might break in the oven because of the heat.

Maybe someone else will know. icon_smile.gif

i found the following information at http://www.baking911.com/cakes/novelty.htm

Obtain a new, clean, 5 or 6 clay flower plot. Wash and dry. Cut a double-thick circle of foil for bottom of pot, then line sides of pot with single layer of foil, pressing against sides firmly. Spray with baking spray and dust all lightly with flour before adding cake batter. Bake 40-45 minutes or until cake touched lightly springs back. Cool in pot ten minutes, then turn out onto rack widest side down and cool thoroughly. Meanwhile, wash out pot. When pot is dry, again line the bottom with a double thickness of foil cut to fit.

there were also other sites that stated that you can use a clay flower pot to cook your cake in.

good luck
