Hi Nancy!

Tube Pan Tip
I am responding to Fran, Upstate New York in the
5/16 newsletter wanting to know how best to use a
tube pan for cakes. She said hers goes all over her
oven and outside the pan. Fran, one of the things
about tube pans, is that you don?t fill it more than
2/3 full. That gives it plenty of space to expand.
Also, foil in the bottom of the oven isn?t the best
way to gather up excess cakes/pies. I always put
the pan/plate on a larger cookie sheet covered
with foil before I put it in the oven. Lots less to
clean up! Good luck with this! Chris in NM
