well, i don't have anything too creative for the mini muffin pan. I just received this myself and for a friend's baby shower made mini quiches. But I just had to post something about the finger guard. During my open house, one of my guests had asked if it was for cake decorating - thinking the ridge side was for making the waves in your icing. She didn't even think that it was a finger guard. I just thought it was an interesting take on that item.
