First of all I must note that I have never used a traditional metal madeleine pan (although I have done a lot of baking). So although I can't compare this silicone pan to a regular one, I can say the following:
PRO
- Madeleines released easily with either a light brushing of melted butter or nonstick cooking spray, also, I let them cool before unmolding.
