cake not coming out of pan

[mona1949]

on my 12x18 cake the center didn't come out and the king cup cakes all didn't come out? what am I doing wrong? thanks

did you use any non stick spray or pan grease to help release? Were the cakes cool enough to come out.
If you leave them too long they'll stick though.
I always use pan grease and parchment paper lining my pans, especially big pans.

pan release and parchment. also turning out of the pan after 10 min cooling on a rack, no longer. I wish I could help you....I hate it when things like that happen. It is so frustrating.

I did use spray release. I thought I waited long enough but maybe not since I was in a hurry. I am just going to add the cream cheese frosting and make cake pops. Thanks for the help.

When life gives you stuck cake, make cake balls....I love it, new mantra!!!!!

I put my cake scraps from leveling or from a sunk cake in the freezer. I just used the majority this weekend to make cake balls for my husband to take to work. He said that they were yummy. If I did not get them out of the house, then I would eat them, not good.......

My thighs and tummy are proof of this!!!!

i spray with non-stick spray and then line the bottom with wax paper. comes out perfect every time. i can either let it cool for 30 minutes and take the cake out or i can let it cool completely. i run a knife around the edges to loosen and turn it upside down. i carefully peel off the wax paper. makes cleaning the pan easier too!
