Last year, I reviewed Miu's Silicone Cupcake Baking Cups and rated those as a five star product. I stand by that review, but feel that Wilton's Silicone Baking Cups are equally as good. As previously stated, I bake fat-free breakfast muffins on a regular basis; they stick to paper cupcake papers so that one loses half a muffin to the paper. My daughter wanted to start using silicone baking cups for her breakfast muffins, but we were unable to find Miu again.I found the Wilton baking cups to be thicker and even more sturdy than Miu; they are not nearly as flexible. There is little chance of the baking cups spreading from the weight of cupcake or muffin batter. This is particularly helpful if one must sit the cups on a cookie sheet to bake or if one is not using a deep silicone pan to hold the cups and batter for baking. The fill line is particularly nice when baking cupcakes as it allows one to put an equal amount of batter in each cup so that baking time does not vary within a batch of cupcakes/muffins.There are several ways to address the other reviewers' issues with these silicone baking cups. I freeze my breakfast muffins and have found that if I allow my muffins to sit out for about 5 minutes and then carefully peel off the silicone baking cup, there is little to no baked good sticking to the cup. If some does stick, I simply fill the cup with water and allow it to sit for awhile before hand washing the cup. The second way is to put the muffin cups into your baking pan and then spray all of the cups with non-stick spray. Be sure to do this over your sink to avoid the mess of overspray. Then bake as directed by your recipe, allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes and then turn out of the pan. The muffin cups will come off easily without damaging the baked goods.As for accidentally throwing out these silicone cups, I remove them just before serving cupcakes or muffins to guests. If you freeze the baked goods and remove the cups before serving, you will need to allow enough time for the product to thaw and come to room temperature. Since there are little to no crumbs sticking to the cup, the treat is not damaged by doing this and my silicone baking cups are safe from being accidentally discarded.We were able to find Wilton Baking Cups at the big home store where they sold for $7.99 for 12; by using a $5 off $15 purchase coupon, and stacking the 10% off coupon on one item, my daughter was able to reduce her total cost for two sets to around $10.

My sister got me two sets of these Wilton silicon cups last November like I requested, one set pastel, and the other, blue and red. I still keep the old blue and red sets from 3 years back and love them. They're all still very convenient for baking, except that these pastel ones get food stains (I bake carrot and also banana muffins in them), are a wee bit lighter, and tear easier than the ones that are red and blue. Though I do like that these new ones now have the 3/4 line from the inside to tell you where to fill up. The regular ones I got three years ago did not have these, though the mini-muffin cups which I got at the same time did, too. I see though, that both the regular and mini-muffin ones I got from 3 years back are sturdier in construction. Go for the non-pastel set anytime.It's also easier to clean them by using a water-soap moistened cleaning cloth, then just wipe them up. This totally removes all the baking bits. If you're concerned with soapy residue, just rinse in water after this, and you're good to go. Hope this helps!

Does cut down on the mess of clean up - can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Small line in the silicone on the inside shows suggested fill point. If used on insulated cookie sheets, the inside ones could take longer to cook than others. Stores easily, always on hand (don't have to go buy paper/foil). If you bake cupcakes all of the time - a cupcake pan(s) may be better but for occasional use, these save space over the pan(s), and can be easier to clean.
