Is it neccessary to use a heating core or baking strips when baking a cake larger than 10 inches? I am doing a 12in round and having trouble finding a store in my area that carries heating cores. Ughh.
Moxey's right, the flower nail will work
It only leaves a little bitty hole too, instead of a giant one like the heating core.
Heating cores are just another piece of crap that Wilton thought up to sell you. It has NO value.
The purpose of it is to conduct heat to the middle of the cake. This is especially useful in larger cakes where the sides tend to bake alot faster (since they are against the hot metal of the pan) and the center takes forever to bake.

I've never used one, nor have I ever used a flower nail. That includes pans 16" round and pans 14x22" rectangle.
