Package #1
KitchenAid Red Flexible Bundform Mold: never used, like I thought I would... off to a new home

paid around $22 for it
If making the perfect Bundt cake has always been a mystery, we have solved it. Try this flexible bundtform pan. More than a pan, it's really a mold that's colorful, bendable and nonstick. Made from a patented, high-gloss silicone, it's oven-safe to 475 degrees and is cool to the touch within minutes after baking. Food cooks and browns evenly, so there's no unbaked pockets or pale looking cakes. And no more running a knife around the edges of pans to remove food - just bend and flex the mold and food comes out in perfect form. You can even freeze in it. Won't retain odors or flavors, and is dishwasher-safe. For storing, it folds or bends to fill almost any space. (Sku: #197714)
