Fantastic recipe, not too sweet (which you wouldn’t want with macerated berries, anyway), and I agree with another reviewer that it has a very slight biscuit quality to it—great for sopping up those berry juices without becoming soggy. A total winner!

I baked theses shortcakes but I substituted Becel margarine instead of butter and they still turned out fantastic and tasted great! I also don’t like to spray my bakeware with an oil/flour spray so I used the margarine again with a small silicone brush to get into all the grooves of the pan and nothing stuck at all. This recipe was really delicious with my fresh strawberries and whipped cream.

I love this pan! My little cakes turned out perfect. I filled them with fruit, whipped cream and topped them with toasted almonds!

Reading the reviews about how the batter was too much, I dropped my oven temp down. Lovely sturdy shape – great details – no overflow. Perfection.

This recipe makes a tasty cake. It does, however, make too much batter. When the batter is divided evenly among the 6 cups, per the directions, the shortcake looks messy. I will try a pound cake in hopes the design is more distinct.

My second batch of these tasty shortcakes is in the oven as I write this review. I like the hint of biscuit coming through the sweetness of the cakes. The batter is thick enough that I recommend piping the batter into the individual shells of the pan. And, if the cakes expand beyond the shell, the more you have for your berries and cream. Yum.
