Wilton Topsy Turvy Pan

This pan is not for those who have the skill and patience to assemble a true topsy turvy cake. For the rest of us this is the perfect "oops" pan for our attempts at cake baking. Think a Dr. Seuss-themed birthday party. Use this pan to bake the base for a tipsy cake. Wilton has included detailed directions (such as using solid vegetable shortening and flour to prepare the pan)for use. Size is roughly eleven inches from top to base and ten inches across at base. According to Wilton this is equivalent to a two layer cake mix.

I love this pan! It makes a cake fun and you could use it for any occasion!

Ugh - the title of this product is very deceptive. One would expect a pan (or set of pans) to make a true topsy-turvy cake - usually three tiers high. This pan makes a poor, poor substitute for a topsy-turvy cake. I would much prefer a traditional cake pan to this sad excuse. Wilton usually makes great products - why are they putting their brand name on this?
