Reddit mentions: The best small pastry molds

I see that you like both Doctor Who and baking, so I think you should get this Tardis apron and these Tardis molds. You can make them while watching some of the Doctor Who DVDs that are already on your wish list and have an awesome day of food and adventures! Also, if you need someone to eat cake and watch Doctor Who with you, I'm your girl! :P

If I win I would really love this external battery phone charger thingy! Thank you and I hope your week gets better :)

My craft, art and greatest joy is writing. I was born to write and I'm lucky enough to actually make money doing what I love. I'm so grateful for it.

People inspire me, whether it be my Dad supporting my decisions, or my friends believing in me and encouraging me, or the people I write about in my articles/ interact with. The world inspires me in many ways and I try to give back to it using what I know.

EMMACAT THE DESTROYER

And when I get tired of writing, I'm also pretty crafty in the kitchen.
Please help me make tasty donuts.

I nominate my mom! She's had to put up with, and go through, more than her fair share. And for that I think she deserves more than her fair share of great things!


She loves baking so this doughnut pan would be super fun! Even if it's just used for brownies!


I heart Mom's!

I'm sorry your week has been bad. :( I hope the weekend makes it better! <3

Oh my gosh, I think you should buy this because it's awesome! Plus, how could baking a Doctor Who cake, decorating it, and then eating it not cheer you up?

If I win, a gift card would be really nice since I'm trying to save up for a new duvet cover. If not that, though, I'd love [this](http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000GG158E/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl? _encoding=UTF8&colid=1S041OZOQDTEI&coliid=I3FFJTJYI73Q04)! :) Thanks for the contest!

Edited because I was on my phone and used some wrong words. :P

Using this RANDOM teapot from my kitchen/baking/food list would make me most seem like an old posh Englishman. Pip pip!

RANDOM "oh god, I would never be seen with this in public" item from the kitchen/baking food list... because I would ALWAYS be at home baking with it!

This is a very "phallic" towel. Yeah. From the RANDOM things list.

This Star Trek cookbook from the Books list is the geekiest RANDOM thing =D

These would certainly help me in my quest to learn how to crochet! From the crafting list. Uhm... RANDOM!

This would be the best thing to bring to a RANDOM deserted island. From the RANDOM things list.

<3<3 COOL contest! I tried to use the word "random" more than you lol. Clearly.

1. For measuring by weight: it feels really daunting until you do it the first time, and then it becomes much simpler. I use the King Arthur Flour Ingredient Weight Chart to do conversions. That chart is incredibly comprehensive-I've never needed a weight for anything that isn't listed, but if you ever do, you can just measure out the recommended amount and then toss it on the scale to get a baseline weight to work from.
   
   I have a basic digital food scale from Walmart. No idea what brand, I just like them to be digital and weigh in both ounces and grams, and have a rare feature (that allows you to place an empty container on the scale and then reset the weight to zero before you add ingredients so that you don't have to do that math manually).
   
   I started out converting my recipes into oz. but I ran into two problems: my scale only read two decimals, and it rounded to the nearest .05 oz. For improved accuracy, I've switched to grams and have been much happier. I only weigh items that would normally be measured by cups, like flour and sugar. Things that are measured in tsp. or tbsp. I leave alone because those weights are negligible anyway. I place a mixing bowl onto the food scale and just dump my flours and sugars directly from the package into the bowl to weigh, so I end up using fewer dishes and making less mess. After weighing, I just dump each ingredient into the mixer and stir. It takes a few minutes to switch your brain over to this system, but I absolutely believe it's worth it.
   
   It's also really easy to scale recipes up or down by nearly any amount-for instance, I have one recipe that uses canned pumpkin, but it calls for something like 2 oz. more pumpkin than is in a standard can, so I used to open two cans and discard the remainder because it was very difficult to figure out how to scale the recipe up when some ingredients were divisible by 1/4 cups and others by 1/3. When measuring by weight, I can easily adjust the recipe to use either a single can of pumpkin or two cans by multiplying all my ingredient weights by either .83 or 1.33 respectively.
   
   
2. The silicone baking mats that I use are just flat sheets that sit on the surface of a cookie sheet. I've bought two sets from Amazon as well as a single at from Aldi and all have been roughly equal in terms of quality and performance. Both sets that I bought are now out of stock, but this is comparable. The worst problem that I've found is that many mats are sized to fit inside a half sheet-sized cookie sheet, while most of the cookie sheets sold for home use are slightly narrower, so the mats ride up over the edge of my trays just a bit and can make the cookies slide around as they bake. Since you aren't supposed to cut the mats down, I had to measure my trays and buy the narrowest mats I could find. If half sheet trays weren't so fanged expensive, I would have tossed all my existing cookie sheets and bought new ones to fit the mats.
   
   I doubt silicone mats would work to line cake pans, as you can't cut them and you would need it to cover the sides of the pan to really be effective. However, there are tons of options for silicone baking pans. Here's just one example from Amazon. I've never used these for baking, but I do have a cupcake pan and a mini loaf pan that I use for freezing things like homemade chicken stock, herbs in oil, etc. and have been very happy with them. They aren't as slick as the baking mats so you may still need to oil them-that would be something to research before diving in.

Light-up shot glass is pretty cool!

Also these are adorable.

And here are some cookie boxes! The small size is $5.79.

If I win I'd love this off my under $5 list!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Thank you for the contest!

Dieting! I wish I would never have to work out or worry about what I eat again. I wish I could just be the perfect size and shape for the rest of me life!

If I won, I'd like these sushi molds or these cute vegetable cutters Seems fitting for my wish!

If this is true, then those mats that restrict the spread are a good thing, right? I've heard they're not good because you don't get good "feet" with them.

I really don't know much about macs - an online friend turned me on to them. He's wild about the ones from Poppies in Belgium. They had them as a spot item here in Denmark for a week in July and I was pretty impressed with them, but I don't know if that's how they really are supposed to taste. Personally I like my homemade ones better, because they taste more like almond and they're chewier, but are they supposed to be that way? Someone on here complained because their first try tasted too much like almond flour, but that is precisely what I like about them.

If he likes traditional English food and things that are Victorian in nature, maybe A History of English Food by Clarissa Dickinson-Wright? She was one of the two hosts of the BBC cooking show, "Two Fat Ladies," which was a really funny and very good show. This book + a tea set or a pudding mold would make an awesome gift, I think.

I use these pans!

They can hardly print organs...we're a ways off from printing buds.

Hash oil on the other hand, could theoretically work. If you could form the terpenes and THC (or CBDs) into a powder or pliable filament, using a low temperature 3D printer with silicone nozzles and such to prevent the oil from sticking. You could then print shaped hash oil....An eighth in the shape of a Piece of Eight

Edit: On a semi-related note, I've wanted to use silicone molds like these to mold BHO after purging when it's still a viscous liquid. I really like this one, it'd be great for shatter; pre-formed little squares that you can break off or cut off with a hot tool...Look like they'd be about a gram too.

Edit 2: The chocolate bar mold in the above link makes 12 miniature bars molded like larger chocolate bars. The image is a close up of the finished candy.

Annnnd here we go again, another crazy but fun contest =)

Hello from two months in the future! I just wanted to say thank you for this link -- I was looking for molds just like these, and your comment helped me to find them in Amazon 'Murica. :D

^(p.s. Next Tuesday's Euromillions draw is 12 - 19 - 23 - 43 - 47 / LS 02 - 06)

^(p.p.s. Good luck, hope I didn't foul up the past!)

Here is the recipe for Season 3 Episode 1 (Great British Baking Show : The Beginnings Episode 1 in netflix)

https://www.bbc.com/food/recipes/rum_babas_served_with_48561

You need four baba tins (savarin moulds) or small dariole moulds. They look like these. What I have is these, so I would be using these large donuts tray. Also other noteworthy ingredients

• sachet fast action yeast
  
• dark rum
  
• vanilla pod (If you wish to stay true to the ingredients listing. I think I will end up using vanilla essence though)
  
  Other ingredients are easily available, so not writing all ingredients. Please follow the ingredients and recipe as per the link.
  
  ​
  
  We will post pics by next weekend: 13th/14th of April. It just so happens to be my birthday on 14th :-)

Games like Candyland would be good for the older two, and the younger one can help out, or maybe even join in. Something fun they can do that's a bit messy is to buy a cheap canvas or two from a dollar store, get some kid's paint and a couple of tennis balls or big sponges. You might need a tarp or two to line the area first, then dip the ball/sponge in the paint and have them throw it at the canvas. They can make some art for you or their parents as gifts!

Cakepops are something I've been meaning to try!

Ichigo daifuku

Kasutera

Green Tea Kasutera

Ginger Green Iced Tea Very refreshing!

Chicken Yakitori Great finger food!

And pretty much anything from this website

I've got more if you want. A simple trick with onigiri is to make them in a non zip sandwich bag. You the bag to line a onigiri mould and them put the rice in the bag. You don't get your hands all messy. You can also just shape them in the bag if you don't have a mould. Then they are individually wrapped for your guest and easier to eat. I used to be the club "mom" for my school's Japanese club and would do this all the time.
　がんばって！

Mini donut pan!!. How awesome would it be to make mini donuts in your own home?! It could be a fun family/friend activity.

These are a staple in my home. Delicious, low carb, good fiber. Can do so much with them, hamburger rolls, sandwich rolls, English muffin substitute. Great with butter, cream cheese, hummus, etc. My next plan is to get this and make bagels. Sausage egg and cheese on a bagel.... can't wait.

Sure! They're actually baked, not deep-fried, and I got them off the back of this pan I bought that had the min-donut shape.

• 1 1/4 cups of flour
  
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  
• 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
  
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  
• 3/4 teaspoon of salt
  
• 1/2 cup of buttermilk
  
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
  
• 1 /1/2 tablespoons butter, melted
  
  Preheat oven to 425F. Spray pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  
  In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg and salt. Add buttermilk, egg, and butter and stir until just combined. Fill each doughnut cup approximately 1/2 full.
  
  Bake 4-6 minutes or until the top of the doughnuts spring back when touched. Let cool in pan for 4-5 minutes before removing. You can then glaze or add sprinkles :)
  
  I used a pan like this: Mini Doughnut Pan

As one avid doughnut fan I must recommend an iron pan to bake the doughnuts in. This is similar but actually having those pups roast in that oven well, the difference will be noticeable. Something like this http://www.amazon.com/Norpro-3980-12-Count-Nonstick-Donut/dp/B0000DDVVL Go Doughnuts! [6]

I love dark chocolate macarons with a raspberry compote filling, it's delicious!

Jiggery-pokery

Happy cake day! There's a bunch of us today! Haha


this macaron tray for my sister would be great!

Most long term bulk storage lists suggest rice. I suppose options for cooking are the one you have prepared and defended.

I was just looking at the list and can not imagine having time to cook with flour every day. I bake edible bread, but I am not a pastry chef. This recipe seems a simpler option to make a sandwich from scratch.

My partner really enjoyed Onigiri when he visited Japan. He bugged me to learn how to make them. You really don't need the Nori, furikake is all you need to make them taste good. I even got a mold to make them faster.

For people who have a stockpile of Spam, try it the Hawaiian way.

Edit : Fixed Links

Here is a link to the mold I have. I want to say the cats are about an inch to an inch and a half long, and half an inch deep. I was thinking of putting some white chocolate in the facial parts of the mold, and getting some colored white chocolate as well. Yeah my fear on looks is that if the white chocolate is thin enough, it might be see through and look bad haha. I will probably do reverse cats too where I use the milk chocolate as the spots and facial features, and the white chocolate as the base. That will probably look a lot better (but the bf doesn't like white chocolate so I only wanted to use a little). Best part about this is i actually have a degree in culinary arts and worked at a bakery doing this stuff for 3 years but I'm still just as clueless about cooking and baking as I was when I was just born XD

DANG GIRL!!!

Also since you love Dr. Who and I am just getting into it love it also.

Doctor Who Tardis Molds

Tardis Jello or Tardis cupcakes....Heck yes. Also they are much bigger than they appear to be.

I know it is not $50 but if you order a couple than it adds up to about that.

Master Shield for your wall

I mean what could be cooler than having this mounted onto your bedroom or living room wall.

Donut pan...how excited am I if I win! It's on my "Eat" wishlist. $8.88!!

Upon further (delicious) research, the best way for me to eat them was from the head (the head being the fat end, like a caterpillar). Recipe here and molds I used here. Enoy!

Sometimes, if you don’t really care too much of the shape or a perfectionist in that sense, you can sometimes find plastic molds for onigiri such as this on Amazon or this from Daiso . I’ve only seen these once in a general Japanese store but hopefully this helps.

Unless you change the flavor, it's a mild sweet almond taste. Perhaps a macaron mat would make it easier.

Yes, they do! I actually originally bought them for my macarons at the suggestion of Sally's Baking Addiction. I started using them for regular cookies as well and that's where my surprise at how well they worked came in. :) I bought full half-sheet silpats but you can also buy silicone mats from Amazon that actually have macaron templates built in.

I made some parchment paper templates to stick under my silpats, but I've been meaning to get macaron silpats too.

No soup for you!

I like mine well done or medium well.

Cooking item

/u/book_worm526 lets have dinner :D

If you think you'll continue to make macarons over the long haul, might be worth picking up some silicone baking mats that come with the templates on them like these ones.

Amazon sells them for $7!!

That's going in the cart for me.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sweetly-Does-Hole-Silicone-Mould/dp/B007J3JMUU

Not the exact same one, but I think it should be a mold/tray out of silicone.

You can buy these:

Some asian supermarkets might have them too!

I did and the one I bought is so awesome.
