Wilton Sports Ball Pan Set: Aluminum Round Baking Pans, Hand Wash, Silver, 2-Piece Set

Ball pan instructions are misleading. Cake takes twice as long as they say to get done.

this is not as sturdy as one would hope. the package this came in was smashed and this less than sturdy "pan" is misshaped.

Just bought this tin to make an ice cream cone cake. Cake took 50 minutes to cook as per a previous review but baked very uneven and was hard and crispy round the edges and just cooked through in the middle. I used a 4 ounce 2 egg mix which was just sufficient for the tin. Don't know what 5 cups of batter specified on the instructions are. How can I rectify the hard crispy edges? The cake also sank in the middle during the early cooking stages when the oven had not been opened - never had this happen before despite making hundreds of cakes!!!!

I had one before and gave it to a friend. Now I need it again an got it from you guys.

These are fun to bake with but you do have to be careful to put the base stand in the center of the bowl so your two sides are not lopsided. After your cake is finished, I recommend cooling it and freezing it before you put the two sides together because it may make it very difficult to frost if you don’t have a firm foundation of the cake itself. Using frosting tips are going to be most helpful With this shape of cake.

Buying my third set since my grandchildren are now decorating their own cakes. One grandson is making a COVID19 cake complete with red spikes for his second COVID19 birthday.

I bought this lab a few years ago and finally broke it out of the box to use for my son's Star Wars Death Star cake. The instructions in the box are not what is currently online. Wish I knew that before I ended up with too much batter in the molds, the wrong temp and a surprisingly long bake time. Now we have a saggy Death Star. They should include a recipe for a firm cake that will definitely work. My guess is that a lot of people used a box mix and had good results based on the reviews.

This pan is perfect for any 3D round cake project. Next time I would add a cake board in between and bbt straws at the bottom to support the weight.

Shipped quickly. Very nice at baking evenly and slipping out of the form easily.

Perfection! From Pokémon to basketball it's my go-to pan!

I bought the sport ball pan and the football pan be cause my three grate gragsons are very much into both of these games. Also I have a friend that has a thing for penguins. And since I am an artist and paint naturalist I thought that useing the foot ball pan for the body with a little carving of the cake and for the head I would use the one half of the sports and make an egloo of the other half. How ever when bakeing the sports ball it took a full Fifty minutes to cook. I made a test at thirty minutes as was your time to bake it and it was still just like the batter was when I had first put it in the pan and had a hard crust formed around the edge of the pan. The cake did rise to the top of the pan and then began to deflate. The same thing happened to the foot ball. How ever I did manage to trim this hard edge away and use the rest of the cake for my project.I would not recommed these two cake pans for any one to buy. I have many other pans with Turkeys, Christmas trees and many others. They are made of a much heavier medal and bake very well. I am sending a photo of my project and must say it did turn out well even with all the difacultys I ran into. Since I am 91 years of age and have been baking for at least 80 some years I feel that it was no fault of mine that that the cakes turned out the way they did. I would not recommend these two cake pans to any one special to a new baker.

It came out great!!!I love the pan.The colors were fantastic!!!I am so glad I found Wilton sport all.

Love... love ... love this pan! My cake came out amazing! First time, making a 3D Golf Ball Cake

I got this as a gift one year and I was really eager to use it. When I did, the batter didn't really cook in the pans and it came out all watery.

the only way I will be using this ball pan is to make fondant decorations or something like that that it needs a rounded shape. It is flimsy. The cake batter will never cook in the center. If you bake the cake until the "center of the cake is done" the cake batter that was in contact with the pan will be rock hard super dry!!! I threw out the cake because it collapsed when I checked to see if it was done. Since the outer edge was super done I thought it was fully done (meaning the center) after 50 minutes of baking!!!! (why so long? it was never done!!!!!!) guess what! super raw and liquid-y in the center! It was one of my fav cake recipes that never fails. What a horrible pan! I am an experienced baker so I know what I am talking about. Now, I bake from scratch so maybe this pan is good for cake mixes.

I bought the ball for several ideas, first was for a castle theme.(pumpkin carriage) didn't use it for that but for Christmas I used the ball and two mini stand up bear cakes for a great idea. Everyone loved it but didn't want to cut into it. Next time I'll use it for a 3D ball for a birthday party

was way way way to small for me. on cake designs i was dying to do it says to use the sports ball pan set from wilton but these are 1/3 of the size i need them to be.

It's awesome to use!

This is a great item to have the kids love this ball because you can do so many things with it. We have made a mini mouse hat and a ladybug so as you can see you can get creative and use this product in many different ways.

My soccer cake for my husband's birthday came out exactly the way I was hoping it would. Love, love this pan.
