Santa Claus baking dish

Cake is the answer! No matter what the question. Are you also a big cake lover, like us? Then this baking pan with Santa Claus motif should not be missing in your kitchen. With this cake pan, the simplest dough becomes a work of art.

Why are many baking pans made of aluminum?

Aluminum baking pans have an important advantage over baking pans made of other materials: aluminum cake pans can be used in all ovens, including gas ovens. Aluminum is a very light metal, but also sturdy. Aluminum is known for conducting heat very well, but not storing it. This is very important for baking, as the dough is baked evenly, but also cools quickly after baking.

The baking pan is easy to handle and can be used in many ways.

The cake pan is suitable for a wide variety of pastries and dough types. A sweet marble cake, a lemon cake or a chocolate cake dough tastes even better as a winter motif. After you bake your cake, you should let the pastry cool. The aluminum baking pan cools better than baking pans made of other materials, but don't forget to put on heat-resistant gloves when you take the baking pan out of the oven. To test if your little cake is done, you can do the chopstick test. Poke a wooden stick into the cake and pull it right back out. If the dough sticks to the stick, you need to bake the cake for a few more minutes. The aluminum baking pan has a protective layer, which prevents the dough from sticking. Nevertheless, you should grease the baking pan so that you can clean it better.

How to decorate your Santa Claus cake

Before you continue, make sure that the pastry has cooled down completely. Now you can start decorating. This cake is an absolute child's dream. The large surface can be decorated with pearls, sugar confetti, pump sprays or sugar paste as you like. Especially the royal icing, a hard white icing made of egg white and powdered sugar can be colored and applied to the individual motifs. Give Santa a pretty red coat and let the racing animals come to life. Sprinkle some powdered sugar over a sieve on the cake at the end. This way you get a snow effect.

The aluminum baking pans are easy to handle, but even easier to clean

Aluminum is easy to clean with warm water, a little dishwashing liquid and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal sponges.
