Hi Bold Bakers! Lining baking pan is something I am no stranger to. I have worked as a pastry chef for over 10 years so as you can imagine I have lined my fair share of trays. When lining round tins it can be tricky because the parchment paper comes off a roll in sheets, not rounds. So what to do? One option to get the parchment to fit your tin is draw a circle around the circumference of your tin. Now this is accurate however you do end up wasting quite a bit of paper, and let’s face it, parchment paper isn’t cheap. So, we don’t like waste and we like easy technique to make our lives easier. Below in my short video I have a few easy steps showing you how to create the perfect circle of parchment leaving you with very little paper left over.

I am a new baker and always confused on lining the tins. Is it necessary to line a tin or will greasing and dusting be sufficient? Any difference in lining non-stick and aluminium tins? In this video, you just lined the bottom, what about sides? Also what about different shaped tins like heart or star or bundt pans? Sorry for so many questions but this is one basic, I didn’t seem to get right.
