What Is This Pan Used For?
 

I bought this Wilton Silicone Holiday Pan after Christmas one year and since my DD was too sick last year, I didn't get around to using it. Now, I'm ready to use it but I don't know exactly what to use it for. Is it for mini cupcakes or muffins or cake like cookies? I suppose I could use it for sugar cookies? If I pressed the dough into each mold? I'm just really not sure. Has anyone used something like this? I tried googling it but didn't find an answer, just sale ads.

what is this pan used for
 

I believe it is used to make jello jigglers a type of jello that can be eaten like a cookie

It looks like it could be a candy mold for chocolates. Blessed Christmas and Happy new year, Ps 150!

Oh, I never thought of Jello Jigglers. Hmm. I heard it could be a candy mold but I don't have everything for candy and I'm not venturing into a store this time of year, lol. I was thinking of making brownie bites in them but I don't want to waste a batch of brownie batter so I was thinking of just trying one. Merry Christmas!!

you can use it for candy ,fudge, Jello and jigglers or use for soap making I got one on clearence so I use mine for soaps the other for fudge and wrap with bow!!!

You can contact Wilton to be sure, but most, if not all, of their silicone pans are oven safe.

They are chocolate or candy molds

I say use it any of the things mention about...it will work

if it made from silicon, it can be baked and you can use it for any of your options

Lots of baking pans are made of silicone. You should be able to bake small cupcakes in them.
Or you could put pie crust dough in them and after baking, fill with some pudding or, better yet, Whipped cream!
They are Petite for a reason. Good for small hand-held treats. Let your fancy run wild.

Thanks so much for all the ideas!! I love the pie crust idea and even the fudge. Now I might have to send DH out to the store. I wasn't going to risk such a dangerous expedition this close to Christmas but now I might, lol.

I have seen them used for ice cubes. too

My daughter has a similar one and used it for the cake-type gingerbread (not the cookie type). Worked very well.

look it up at wilton.com...I think it can be used for just about anything, even ice cubes, or frozen cranberry cubes for the punch bowl..BUT before I would make brownies in it, I would make sure it is meant for the oven as well!
I found you really need to keep the cardboard band that comes on these to make sure you know what they are for and how to care for them. THey are not all created equal I have found!
Show us what you used it for!

This was NOT meant for the oven, as I found out the hard way. I tried making mini brownies in them and my kitchen reeked with the nastiest smell. My other Wilton baking silicone is blue and this was red so I guess that should've been my first glue but I guess I thought it was festive looking. My guess is that it was meant for refrigerated purposes like fudge or candy. Oh well. I tossed it out, thankful that it was just a clearance sale item and went back to making cookies, after the kitchen cleared, lol.

see if you can find one on the wilton site....

I love it and hope I can find a couple of similar molds after Christmas. I would use one for jello and one for soap.

i would say it is a candy mold.

I would attempt shortbread.

Gingerbread cookies.

Heard some young folks mix jello and booze then chug - a - lug the mold thingies to get drunk. Guess its all the range and I wonder what they will think up next? Orginally, think they are jello christmas molds.

I think it is for holiday ice cubes, but maybe it would be good for chocolate.

I agree, candy mold. That doesn't mean you couldn't cram cookie dough in there and experiment though!!!

(They would make such cute Jello shooters!!! So festive!)

how about ice cubes in a big bowl of holiday cheer! i have to say that fudge or some sort of candy sounds much better :)

I saw some in JoAnns today and they are for muffins or cookies. They are oven safe to 400 or 500 degrees. It also said dishwasher safe ( I would do the top rack), wash before first use, and use non-stick spray.

my DD uses hers for ice cubes!

I have something similar and use it for candy molds, fudge, etc. I think you can really just let your imagination be your guide and have fun! Happy Holidays!

You could make some cute butter pats for Christmas dinner. Just soften butter, fill molds., tap on counter to get out air and fully fill. Then put in fridge to firm. Unmold and put on plates!! 😃

I'd use them with colored water to make colored icecubes to float in punch.

could even pack in rice krispie treats!!

I'd make small Christmas cup cakes in them, you can also use them for making candies but most of my silicone pans I pretty much use them for baking cupcakes or small individual sized cakes.

I think these are actually made to do little brownies in. I have a couple of other shapes and have used them for that. Of course, you can used them for many other things that are small....like said by others....candies, soaps, etc.

I have one and it is used for cup cakes with out the papers. Works great. They just pop put.
