I have been borrowing mom's for some of my shows to make some recipes. I don't have ours yet, but I have a regular metal one. I need to give mom's back before Christmas and I am not sure if I want to buy one of ours (gasp I know!) when I've got one already that's not worn out.

What makes ours better than a regular one? I know it's darker so is it more nonstick? I can't justify to DH giving it to Goodwill without reasons ;)

thanks!
 
DH made me get rid of my Wilton panI had the Wilton mini-muffin pan, and after getting our PC one DH asked me to not use the Wilton. The shape of the cups on ours make the muffins come out easier, ours cleans up easier, and the surface is more slick.

HTH! :)
 
Ours ROCKS..........

I have several others and recently had to make 120 muffins...
The ones in the PC pan came out no problem, the others not so well.

Plus the fact that ours makes 24 at a time. The other pans I have only do 12.
 
I Love Ours!Everything I have ever made in ours does not stick at all. I love it! And it cleans so easy b/c their is no sticking. My old ones are all grungy b/c I have to spray them with Pam for them not ti stick and I do not have to to spray ours, so, no messy build up.

The tart shaper is a must to go with it too in my book!
 
The only time I have to use non-stick spray w/ mine is when making tuxedo brownie cups - the brownies do stick a bit if I don't.
I have one of the older style PC pans (I think they were improved 3-4 yrs ago) and one of the new ones.....and there is even a big difference between those two - the new one is all that everyone has already posted - I love it - especially this time of year!
 
i got mine and threw some cake batter in and then realized, shock on shock, I had forgotton the Pam....i reasoned that "it was Pampered Chef so it will be fine" and indeed it was. After cooling, my little brownies almost jumped out of the pan ;)
