The last few can I've bought won't spray! I take off the nozzle prick the openings with a toothpick and sometimes that will work. It's annoying!!

I had the same problem a while back and tried the recipe for cake release that so many have raved about on this site. I just mix a batch and keep it in a wide mouth mason jar. 1C flour, 1C shortening, 3/4C veg oil.

I haven't had that problem with the can I'm using now. I have had it in the past though.

BTW-I buy mine at Sysco. For $5.00, I can get a large can. They call it the foodservice size. It has probably twice as much as the grocery store cans.

I, too, have problems with virtually every can. I don't bake every day - not even every week sometimes. I have had good luck with soaking the little nozzle and cleaning the opening with a pin, but there is also a red dot on the collar of the can below the nozzle. Be sure the hole in the nozzle is over that red dot.

YES! I decided to try a different brand...bought the Crisco brand spray w/flour and so far no problems. It's sprayer is designed differently and I haven't had any clogging at all.

I figured it out!! i bought the pam with flour today and read the top where it says to line up the arrow with the red marking.

the baker's joy said the same thing except it said linei t up with the dot..which i couldnt find the darn dot!

i got home with my pam and handed the can to my daugther..she said i dont see a dot either..my 13 yr old said..let me see..SHE SAW THE TEENY GREEN DOT on teh silver part of the can lined it up and it worked!!!!!!

The cake release on this website works a lot better than those sprays. They always crisp the edges of the cake.

...I've never had a problem with the product itself not working, just the mechanics of the cans... icon_confused.gif
