Thank you so much for this info I love it and will never buy Bakers Joy again.  Rose You Rock!

Thank you, I will give it a try, I hate lining cake tins.

Thank you this is awesome. Do you know the shelf life of this? I made this today and it worked great never buying Baker's Joy again.

Can you tell me how to Price cakes. I have never charged for mine. I get to many orders. So I need to charge. Please help.

Used this for a Wilton Mickey Mouse cake pan and it worked brilliantly!  The cake came out perfect.  Thank you!

this stuff is AMAZING for high detail bundt pans!!!  I thought greasing was good enough.. but after using this, i will never go back!!  thought i might use cocoa in place of some of the flour for chocolate cake but it looks great!

I used this for an intricate bundt cake pan today and it released perfectly!  I left the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes and then took it out of the pan to cool. Thank you!!

Do you do equal parts by weight, or just a measuring cup?

I've been using a variation of this for over 40 years!  It's the same except I never added the oil.  Mine just called for flour and crisco.  Bundt cake are a breeze!  Character pans, easy as can be.  It's so easy getting the whole pan "brushed"  You can see if you've missed a spot so quickly.

I really need to start using this on my intricate Nordicware pans.  My question is geared towards the brush you use.  How do you wash them so that they get perfectly clean?  I've had problems before with brushes not feeling totally clean.  Perhaps it was the quality of my brush.  I'm not always fond of silicone brushes.

A quick and easy recipe that allows you to efficiently grease your cake tins so your cakes come out perfect every time!

butter (shortening works too)

flour (regular all purpose)

Combine all the ingredients into a bowl and mix together with a hand mixer or stand mixer on a medium speed until the mixture is smooth.

Using a pastry/basting brush, generously coat your cake pan with the cake release.

Place the leftover cake release in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for future use (see note 1).

Wooowww! I'm so glad I've found "you"!!!
One question,  please: can I use gee, instead of butter?
Thank you so much!

Can't wait to try it 😍, thank you. How long can I keep it in the fridge.

I made mine with GF flour, oil and shortening - dairy and gluten free so I can use for all recipes.

I LOVE this!  I made a Wedding Anniversary cake and made 9 cakes, every one came out perfectly.  I will use this forever!
THANK YOU!  Love it for my Bundt cakes too!  AND so much better than butter and flour MESS!

The last thing you want after spending all that time and effort baking a cake, is for the cake to stick to the pan and break when you come to removing it! Recently I've been making my own cake release (also known as cake goop or cake grease) to prepare my cake tins, and it's been working amazingly! It has saved me so much time and money, and my cake layers come out perfect every time! :)

To make this cake release, all you need to do is combine equal parts of any type of unflavoured vegetable oil, a fat (such as butter or shortening) and all purpose flour.  Adjust the quantities based on how much you need, and any excess will keep in the fridge for at least a month :)
