Shaped Cake Pans

3-D Train Shaped Cake Pan by Wilton

This 3-D train cake pan by Wilton is perfect for the train lover in your life.  Trains have a majestic power over the young and old, which makes this a very versatile cake.  The cake pan set comes with two molds that bake together to create a 3-D cake.

Decorating this cake can be as easy or elaborate as you like.  My favorite use for this is to create a 3-D Thomas the Tank Engine Cake.  There are other Thomas cake pans, but none are 3-D like this.  It will take

some creativity and a steady hand to pull it off, but it’s not terribly difficult.

This cake pan is made by Wilton, so you know that you’re getting the highest quality shaped cake pan at the best price possible.  If you were able to track this pan down in your town, it would run you around $20.  Right now, Amazon.com has it for around $14 and it qualifies for free shipping if your order is over $25.

The jack-o-lantern cake pan is a “jack” of many trades.  This is one of the most versatile cake pans I’ve seen.  It makes great jello molds and rice crispy treats, but also works as a candy dish or a wall decoration!  Where else will you find something so versatile and reusable for under eight bucks?

Pirate Ship Cake Pan by Nordic Ware

Aargh Matey!  This pirate ship cake pan by Nordic Ware is perfect for the land loving pirate in your life.

I’m not going to fluff anything up to help get a sale.  This cake is hard to decorate!  There are a lot of little minute details that are on the top of the ship, and the sails will have to be built.  I helped a friend decorate this cake, she was in over her head and called me for assistance.  Cake molds like this take a very steady hand with the icing bag, and an eye for detail.

When we built the sails we struggled to come up with a good design.  You’ll see in the picture on the main page or the Amazon page that they built one mast right in the middle.  We used chopsticks for the masts and built sails on the front and back with black canvas.

Now, I certainly don’t want to scare you away from this cake.  If you’re up for a challenge, or looking to build your skills, this is the perfect shaped cake pan for you.  Just be ready for it!

Nordic Ware makes this cakepan in the USA.  They make some of the highest quality cake molds around, and this one is no exception.  I’ve seen this one at my local restaurant supply store for around $40, Amazon.com has it for only $30 right now and it comes with free shipping.
