Bake Even Strips For 1/4 Sheet Cake Pan
Decorating By Byron Updated 4 May 2010 , 2:22am by tigerhawk83
Anyone use bake even strips for a 1/4 sheet cake. The ones I can find are wilton and regency which come in a 2 pack of 8" and 9" and a 4 pack of 10 12" 14" and 16" size.
Now if my math is still good, the 14" strip will fit my 13x9" tin, however I have 4 tins and buying the 4 pack @ $33 dollars a go is a little expensive, plus wasteful as I never bake 10, 12 or 16" cakes.
So if anyone knows where I can get a 14" bake even strip in singles I would apreciate it.
Thanks
Another way to get around the bulge on the cake without BE strips is to bake it 25-30F lower than the recipe calls for. I took a class from a pastry chef and this was her recommendation. I time the cake according to the recipe and then set my timer for 5-10 min. periods and check very closely. You will soon learn how your oven heats and how much extra time you need to bake at a lower temp.
I make all mine homemade from fleece off the remnant table @ my local fabric store. I just cut the length I need - no seaming, no raveling and each one is a custom fit - and the price is right
