Nordic WareBackyard Bugs, 5 Cup Capacity, Toffee

My grandson loves Science. He wants to be an Entomologist. My youngest daughter loves to bake. Do I have the baking mold for you! Nordic Ware quality, fun insect motif, aesthetically pleasing.

This is a heavy duty very well made product. It produced the cutest banana bread items. I plan on using this product many times for breads etc.

Since purchasing my first Nordic Ware baking pan in 2013 from William Sonoma, I have started to collect these whimsical cake baking pans. These pans NEVER fail to release perfect design mini cakes. My 18 year old daughter both bake with them. We have used the Wilson cake release liquid and Pillsbury pan aerosol spray with fantastic results in all Nordic Ware pans. Get in all grooves but don't over apply. I use a paper towel to get in all grooves and keep other areas from over greasing. Nordic aware website has a lot of great info about these pans, (and examples of all the pans they make). These are heavy pans that cook evenly. Easy cleanup; when cooled down I wash with a microfiber dish cloth adding a little Dawn dish soap, rinse and dry. Easy and fun to decorate. I have used box cakes, scratch cake, muffin recipes and pumpkin bread which all yield perfect result. We have used two different designs to bake at the same time; depending on the yield of recipe. After baking and cooling easy to trim "bottom" with serrated knife. I highly recommend!! These are perfect for all levels of baking ability. Terrific to make with children. Buy one pan and you won't be able to stop getting more of them!!

First, I bought this used because I know it's a niche purchase. I thought it would be fun to use with my nephews for a project. Whatever the previous owner did with this wrecked the non-stick coating on the pan. Unfortunately, I won't be using it to bake cakes. I'm not bothered by this because instead of baking with it we will use it to make bath bombs and still have some fun! The pan is heavy duty, the design is adorable, cleaning is always a chore with these but since I won't be using it for food products I won't be afraid of not doing a perfect job on cleanup. For the discount I got buying this used, I feel like it is worth the money to use it on bath bomb projects and I know my nephews will have a great time making them.

Nordic always makes a great product. This is actually larger cakes than I expected..which is great..I made the recipe on the packaging and was very good..but it’s super easy to use and clean..but the bugs themselves are adorable.

Sent to my Grand kids to enjoy for summer. They loved it. Loved learning about each bug. Searched their yard for them. Great teaching tool.

I didn’t use it for baking, but I would probably recommend shortening and flour to make sure the cake doesn’t get into the intricate places.This is a beautiful piece of art on its own. Plus the designs are gorgeous.!

I am in love with Nordic Ware's baking pans! The detail is amazing. I get lots of comments on how wonderful they look. The cakes in this picture were made using a boxed lemon cake mix, some edible glitter, and are filled with a marshmallow butter cream. Honestly, if you've never used the Nordic Ware pans, you need to. People will be amazed at how beautiful your cakes are! Just spray with Baker's Joy or other spray with flour in it and they will come right out when you flip the pan. Just a little soap and water with a dishwasher and they are clean.
