Do this before you use. This product will need to be washed with mild detergent and rinsed thoroughly then set the oven at 350 degrees. Place the cups upside down on the oven rack and bake for 20 minutes. This will help them from staining and get rid of that silicone smell out. Also when baking with these use vegetable oil to coat the inside for easy removal. I use a regular brush to coat the oil...Spray one will stain these. Note: this procedure is done with all silicone Items.I love this product. I made Blueberry Muffins w/Streusel in them and decided I needed more than 12, so I ordered 4 more. Mine did not stain at all.

Stains immediately.

I don't see paying $17 for four cupcake molds a good value when the only reason I paid so much for these (I bought 3 boxes, stupidly) was for their aesthetic value. I can't give them any more than one star (I'd give zero, if I could) because I didn't buy these to be silicone cupcake molds, I bought them to be pretty white porcelain-like tea-cup cupcake molds. If I wanted purely functional silicone cupcake molds, I would have bought those ... and paid much less for them.The instructions indicate clearly that using a spray-on oil to oil the cups will cause discoloration, but nowhere is it said that baking cupcakes ONE TIME will ruin the cups with permanent stains. After ONE USE, each and every one of my cups was stained anywhere the cake batter was thin enough to over-cook slightly (such as at the edges of the cupcakes or where one or two drops of batter were left on the edge or outside of the cups.Naturally, the cups will still work as cupcake molds, but why the he11 would I pay so much money for a mold that is marketed as a porcelain-look-alike product that stains the first time it is used? I certainly could have been more fastidious in my placement of the cake batter, but I wasn't particularly careless and I was under the impression that I would have been warned (by the box) if there were a problem (e.g. such as was the case with the spray-on oil).This is particularly disappointing to me because my daughter is about to turn one and I thought these would make super cute cake molds for her 1st birthday ... so, what I paid a whole lot of money for was only dashed hopes for a cute party idea.------I have noticed that a more recent review gives a complicated pre-use treatment plan for avoiding stains. Nowhere on the box (or on any other silicone baking item I've used, for that matter) is this treatment described. I have never done that and don't know if it works, but it might. If the makers of these cups had indicated that a thorough and complicated anti-staining treatment should be followed to avoid stains, I certainly would have followed it. Even if stains can be avoided, I still think a zero to one star review is appropriate, considering the manufacturer gives no warning of possible problems that might occur through the normal, advertised use of the product.

I ordered only one of these when they were only $12.79 to try it out. In the meantime I tried it out and was going to order two more but the price went up almost $5.00 each, thus I did not order more. I baked muffins in it this morning and it stains being white. You are supposed to be able to serve the baked goods out of the teacup. The muffins come out easily but I could not get anything to take the stains off, washing them did nothing. I was very disappointed as I have ladies over for tea and thought it was a great tool. I would have rated the product a five star rather than a three star because of that.
