baking cupcakes in a commercial sized pan?
I bought a 24 cup cupcake pan from a restaurant supply store because I am baking cupcakes for my daughter's wedding. The cups are regular size, just in one big pan. Should I place the pan on the middle rack, as usual, and do they need to bake longer?
Best Answer
Yes and Maybe. You should definitely place the pan 'centered on the center rack' of a well pre-heated oven. The heat should be absorbed evenly and allow all of the cupcakes to bake at the same pace. (If your oven has 'hot spots' you may wish to rotate the pan once, 180°, about half way through the expected cooking time).
As for how long to bake them, do not let time @ temp be your guide to 'done'. As with any cake, use the toothpick test (stick a toothpick into the center of a cupcake and pull it out, if it is clean, they are done.) You should start testing this way at the 'expected' baking time.

What size cupcake pans do bakeries use?
Typically, standard baking cups measure 2" x 1 1/4" and are commonly used for traditional-sized cupcakes or muffins. Mini baking cups with a 1" diameter can be used for presenting chocolate covered cherries or caramels, and 3 1/2" diameter jumbo baking cups can be used for gorgeous gourmet cupcake creations!Can you bake cupcakes in a cake pan?
Begin by baking a cake in a sheet pan or in a cake pan. Any thick flat cake will do! Ideally, you should bake the cake to be about as thick as a normal cupcake which is about two to three inches high. Now that you have your cake ready, you are halfway to perfect cupcakes!What is the size of a large cupcake pan?
