Another idea is to use a cake pan of course. You can always re-use a cake pan. However, I don’t think it’s the best idea to buy themed cake pans because it’s an extra item that you may only use once. When you consider all the energy that goes into making and shipping dishes it seems insane to only use a pan once.

If you do buy a themed pan make sure it’s one you’ll use again. Maybe one with a variety of designs built in. I like this Backyard Bugs Cakelet Pan from Williams-Sonoma, because I can see using it for lots of occasions – birthday celebrations, easter, a child’s tea party, and more. Your kids will adore this pan too; it makes the cutest little cakes.

Cute, right? It goes without saying that you need to ditch the paper plate and plastic forks as well. To learn more see:
