starboyhull Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Hi, Does anyone else have smartware ovenware, I ordered them off one of the shopping channels as they looked great.......I just cant get on with them, does anyone else use them and is there a trick to getting anything to turn out right in them??? Everthing always comes out fine with normal ovenware but these just dont seem to be any good....... Anyone else daft enough to buy them???

craftyhunnypie Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Hiya - do you mean the silicone baking stuff? Coz I've bought all that and I'm afraid my cakes and stuff just don't turn out easy at all. Infact they are flippin' c..p! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Never heard of it Is this it though..here... I think it looks like silicone too. I bought a bread tin in blue silicone from Poundland to try out. Unfortunately, as it is bendy, the sides sagged and the bread came out a funny shape, never used it since (and now have a breadmaker ).

Ladylucan Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 I havent tried them, and havent even see what they look like, but we sell the food instore with the smart code on them ready for the ovens, and i have been told by a few customers that they are really good, Obviously our food is ready done to pop straight into the oven so dont really know about using your own dishes. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocobo Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 I brought some like that from lakeland, it was a heart shaped cake tin and an heart shaped mini bun tin, but they both work really well, and stay in shape... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starboyhull Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 I paid quite a lot of these, wish I had just invested in some decent good old fashioned metal ones....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 I love my silicone bakeware The first one was a present a few years ago, from friends who bought it in France, and I've added to it since, mostly from T K Maxx who often have random baking 'tins' for some reason. The first time I used it I really had to fight the urge to grease it, but I have had no problems with it - think it's great. Sorry, I can't shed any light on why others are struggling with it!

Olly Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 yes, I think so. I've got a 12-hole bun-tin and a round cake tin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
