Product Information
Full details
The Wilton Red Muffin Cups are ideal for home bakers, event planners, and holiday hosts who want a professional, elegant aesthetic for their baked goods without the hassle of extra cleanup. These sturdy, gold-trimmed baking cases maintain their vibrant color and structural integrity through the heat of the oven, allowing you to bake directly on a cookie sheet if preferred. While they offer exceptional convenience and a high-end look, note that they are intended for single-use applications and may not fit standard muffin tin cavities as snugly as thin, paper-only liners due to their reinforced structure.

FAQs
Do I need to grease these muffin cups?
Generally, no. These cups are designed to allow for an easy release, but for very sticky recipes, a light mist of non-stick cooking spray may be used.
Can these be used in the microwave?
These cups are designed for oven use. We do not recommend using them in a microwave as the metallic trim may not be microwave-safe.
Are these muffin cups oven-safe?
Yes, they are designed to withstand standard baking temperatures used for cupcakes and muffins.
How many cups come in the package?
Each pack contains 50 individual red and gold-trimmed muffin cups.
Will the red color fade in the oven?
No, these cups are specifically crafted to remain bright and vibrant throughout the baking process.
Can I use these for cold desserts like mousse?
Yes, their sturdy construction makes them an excellent vessel for serving individual portions of chilled desserts or candies.
Troubleshooting
Batter leaking through the base
Ensure the cup is placed on a flat, even surface and avoid overfilling beyond the two-thirds mark.
Difficulty peeling the liner away
Allow the baked goods to cool completely before removing the liner to ensure a clean release from the cake surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up these baking cups is straightforward: simply arrange them on a level baking tray and fill each cup approximately two-thirds full with your batter. While they are designed to be self-supporting, you can still use them inside a standard muffin tin if you prefer a uniform shape across all units. Store the unused cups in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to ensure the metallic finish remains untarnished and the material stays crisp. After use, these cups should be disposed of, as they are not designed for repeated washings or re-baking.
