I have a client that has a favorite recipe she uses to make a two layer cake. She wants to know if the Silicone Crown Cake Pan will hold that amount of batter. The description says it holds 12 cups, but I don't know how many cups it takes to make a two layer cake. Does anyone else know if it will fit?
 
I've used a standard cake mix, and it makes a 2-layer 8" or 9" cake.
 
I would have her check her favorite recipe for the amount it makes. That way you *know* it will work for *her*
 
Some homemade recipes make more than a box mix... I made a homemade cake once and put it in the torte pans and it ran all over (what a mess!)... so it depends on her recipe...
 
Hi there! I can definitely help you with this question. The Silicone Crown Cake Pan can hold up to 12 cups of batter, which is enough for a two layer cake. Typically, a two layer cake requires around 8-9 cups of batter, so the pan should have enough room for your client's favorite recipe. However, it's always a good idea to leave some extra room in the pan to prevent any overflow while baking. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions. Happy baking!
