So I have read many times abut CC members using a homemade mix of equal parts oil, crisco, and flour to prepare their pans. Well today I tried it for the first time, the cakes are in the over, and I am saying a few prayers that they come out of the pans without sticking.

I sure hope it works because it was a lot easier than cutting parchment circles and greasing and flouring.

Don't worry it will work. That is all I ever use.

LOVE that stuff! Keep it in a Tupperware canister, slap it on with a pastry brush, no problems, ever!

been using it for 10+ years. It will work.

That's all I ever use. It will work. You'll never go back to your old method again.

Ditto here too - works like a charm!

I use it also ....never a problem and will never use anything else ...

I thought Wilton's Cake release was the grandest thing ever, until I realized how expensive it can get! Read about the homemade version here on CC and I've been hooked ever since.

Well everyone was right , the stuff works like a charm and is dirt cheap to make. I will definitely keep using it.
