William Sonoma carries a variety of different types of pancake molds including many characters or elements from famous movies such as Harry Potter and Star Wars Pancake Molds. The batter has to be poured slowly so that a base forms at the bottom of the mold, this is to prevent the batter from leaking out of the mold. The food is easy to fall off, new design of small air holes around to easy flip and two extended ears to help you to take hot food without getting hurt. Once the molds are removed, gently flip the pancakes over using a thin flat spatula. Allow your pancakes to cook for two more minutes on the other side or until the undersides are golden brown. Nordic Ware Pancake Pans are a great way of adding interest to regular pancakes. Kids will love the fun faces and designs on their pancakes plus the brand has a number of different design themes to choose from.

More Prone to be Damaged: Compared to the metal molds silicone molds can more easily be torn and damaged.More Difficult to Use: Silicone molds are a bit more tedious to work with since if you aren’t careful the pancake batter can seep out. Experiment to find out the exact temperature for using the type of pancake molds you own. Read and follow all instructions that your pancake mold may come with.

You have to ensure that the base of the frying pan or griddle you are using is flat or the batter will seep out. If you are looking for a pancake mold set with a variety of fun shapes that kids will love, The Slomg Egg Shaping and Pancake Molds Set is perfect. The set comes with 8 different shapes to choose from.Pancake batters expand slightly as the pancakes cook. So Don’t overfill the molds; the batter should come no more than two-thirds of the way up the sides. If you use too much batter you risk the batter running over. This Norpro Silicone Mold is perfect for making perfect round 4-inch round pancakes, eggs and so much more. They offer two main types of molds; the ones made of silicone ones or the molds made of metal. I generally recommend using a metal mold for beginners since it tends to be easier to use.
