Festive Mini Loaf Pan (12pc set)

Festive Regular Loaf Pan (6pc set)

Blossom Baking Cup (12pc set)

I also received a Welcome Home Brands catalog, and I was excited about that, because it showed me all of the other great styles and neat Welcome Home Brands products that I might just want to try in the future.

Since I'm not a great baker, I was really interested in trying these paper bakeware products. One of the best things about the paper bakeware is that it's kind of an all in one type deal. I can bake, store, serve and give directly in each product. I don't have to wash baking pans when I'm done, transfer to different bags or pans for gifting, etc. These are oven safe up to 400 degrees, and they're freezer safe, as well. Welcome Home Brands even offers paper bakeware for commercial chefs, which meet all FDA standards! Eat your heart out, bakers and chefs... and moms!

 Adorable Festive Regular Loaf Pan

Since I had a review to write, I knew I needed to get into the kitchen and get baking. I decided to start with the Festive Regular Loaf Pan. I have lots of zucchini growing in my garden this year, so I shredded up a zucchini, and whipped up a zucchini bread batter. I had enough batter for two loaves. I simply pre-heated the oven, poured my batter into each loaf pan, as I would with a regular loaf pan, let it settle for a minute, and into the oven they went at the regular time and temp. After the timer went off, I carefully removed the loaf pans (they were placed on a metal pan for baking), and let them cool. I now had one loaf to enjoy, and the other, I planned to give away.

Once the bread had cooled off, I simply peeled the paper loaf pan back, to reveal the bread. It came off cleanly, didn't break or tear chunks of bread away from the rest of the loaf, etc. How did it bake? Like a dream! I always have trouble with quick breads in my glass and metal loaf pans- the bottom, top and sides get crispy, and the middle is always too un-done. With the paper loaf pans from Welcome Home Brands, the zucchini bread loaves came out better than I had hoped for! And because they were so pretty in those festive polka-dotted loaf pans, I wrapped one right up and took it to my aunt and uncle's house when we went to visit them. They loved the zucchini bread as much as I did, and loved the paper bakeware, too!

Blossom Baking Cup- Love the pretty design on this!

Next up on my review list was the Blossom Baking Cup. I don't do a lot of cake baking during the summertime, because to me, cake it just too heavy for this time of year. I do, however, love to make fruit pies. I had some delicious, ripe, fresh peaches from a local fruit stand that I needed to use up. So, I asked my wonderful baker man of a husband to whip up some homemade pie crust for me, while I made a homemade peach pie filling. I wanted to try to make individual little peach pie cups, using the Blossom Baking Cups. I pressed the pie crust into five of the baking cups, and around the sides. I placed all five of the cups on a baking pan, and put those into a pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for about forty minutes. They came out of the oven to cool for a few minutes, and I checked the crust. It looked nice and flaky, and held its form well. I then spooned the peach filling into each cup, and let them get hot and bubbly, back in the oven. When they came back out of the oven, they looked absolutely amazing! I couldn't wait to taste one!

I took the peach pie cups to my parent's house the next day, and warmed them back up in the oven, then served them directly from the blossom baking cups, each on a tiny plate. My mom, dad, aunt, uncle and grandmother raved about the peach pie cups, and the blossom baking cups, too! The crust came right away from the paper cups, with very little sticking. I was completely impressed by them, and since I have a few more, I can't wait to use them again!

Festive Mini Loaf Pan- so cute for summertime!

Somehow, my picture of what I made in the Festive Mini Loaf Pans disappeared, but I'll still tell you about it. Along with fresh peaches, we always have a huge bowl of fresh apples, for Balian. So, I made another little sauce pan of pie filling, with the apples, and made little individual apple cobblers. Again, these were bakes, stored, and then eaten right from the little mini loaf pans. They were delicious! I can see myself using these for making little holiday treats in. They'd be great for class parties, birthdays, appreciation gifts, etc!

Every baker- man or woman, needs to give these awesome, unique paper bakeware products a try! Seriously- you pour, bake, store, serve and give, directly in these bakeware pieces. No need to grease them before hand, and they come off cleanly! If you love to bake, these are for you! If you hate to bake, because you hate dealing with all of the pans, these are definitely for you! If you love to give baked goods as gifts, these are for you!
