It's it's not a non-stick, I would suggest elbow grease and SOS pads. If it is non-stick, I don't know cuz I don't use that stuff. (But then, if it is non-stick, then it sounds as if the coating is gone; and in that case, I would throw the tin away and get a new one . . . one that isn't non-stick; that stuff is lethal. Truly).

It is non-stick which I bought from Canadian Tire which I just bought last summer. It is not fair to throw it away when I just purchased it last summer and it's non-stick, which means it's a quality muffin tin.

Well, I guess I can't help you then. I do not equate non-stick with quality. Good luck in whatever you decide. Oh . . . the above statement doesn't include silicone bake wear because I know zilch about that. But the above statement does include teflon-coated no-stick bakewear. Whether it's "fair" to throw it away or not, I won't address . . . but I would encourage you to seriously consider your health over whatever you paid for the item. If it is teflon-coated non-stick and it is no longer living up to it's name, that means the coating is coming up in small pieces and most likely adhering to the food that you eat. The coating they use is bad enough in and of itself (as it leeches into your food while cooking / baking). but if one is consuming actual pieces of it, that is very dangerous. Teflon non-stick causes myriad neurological disorders and or illnesses.

I went to the Canadian Tire's website. It appears that some of their products are non-stick silicone and some are basic uncoated metal bakewear. Again, I know zilch about the silicone products. Did the item come with any care instructions?

Teflon non-stick causes myriad neurological disorders and or illnesses. Of course my health IS more important than money. I am just surprised bc I have frying pan that is also non-stick and it is still working in Perfect condition. I confess that I use plastic-spatula when I use my non-stick frying pan; whereas when it comes to my muffin tin, I use stainless steel knife which could mean that I spoiled it. Right? What should we use when we unmould our muffins to preserve the coating of the muffin tin?

Probably all I have is the name "Wilton" . Thanks for looking up the info from their website, that was so sweet. I will take a sneak peek at their website.

I typed in "silicone bakewear sticking" into Google. The first result indicated (still on the Google page) to lower your oven temperature by 25 degrees to prevent sticking. However, after doing a quick glance-through of the website, I couldn't find it specifically listed. > HERE < however is the addres.

So you suggest that I purchase one with no coating - is not non-stick, the one we find at the dollar store? At Canadian Tire, most of that stuff is the Teflon type, i.e. they are non-stick. You know that is the fashion now. I don't think the other type is available anymore in the market? Am I right?!?

Cloak, the Wilton brand stuff, isn't teflon coated I don't think.... it also isn't silicone... Also "non-stick" does not always equal "teflon-coated" Maybe there is a buildup of oil or something on it? I looked it up, and it says it's Titanium coated, no idea if that's "safe" or not, and it also states "metal utensil safe" I always use muffin papers, they never stick, so you could start doing that?

Actually, towgirl, from a quick search I did (earlier), it does appear that some of Wilton's products ARE, indeed, silicone. CLICK HERE Cloak, as to where to buy good high-quality pans that are not "non-stick", you can find them practically anywhere. I don't know about dollar stores, because I don't shop at them. Anywhere that sells good baking products would probably carry them.

I have a regular non-stick muffin pan, but I use paper muffin cups and avoid the whole how-to-pry-them-out-of-the-pan dilemma.

Wilton is also a well known brand here in the United States. =) They do have non-stick as well as "regular" pans available. I've also seen silicone. I vote for the cupcake papers as the easiest of all solutions. I have a tart pan that I made brownies in that did very well, but the non-stick aspect wasn't not favorably impressing me. (it's not the traditional non-stick of frying pans and such, it's something else) I baked them, after oiling the wells, and left it to David to shake them out of the pan. He said they did all come out on their own, just needed a bit of thrashing to do so. =) haha.

I agree. That's what happened with me as well esp. after several times of usage. Being muffin fan, I bake almost on weekly or biweekly basis. That's what I am gonna purchase this week-end...paper muffin for my muffin pan. WRBlessings~ I brush mine with oil as well before I put the batter. The problem comes when I remove them, I used metal knife which is why I think I removed the coating. How do you remove your muffin, do you use metal knife as well?

Set them on a wet towel when you take them out of the oven for a few minutes. Works for me!

Wiltons are good baking pans. I have a few. I don't use paper wrappers for my muffins.. but you do have to be careful on how you clean them.. you don't spray on non stick spray if it's already non stick... and don't scrub it with anything harsh.. that's what the people at williams-sonoma have said to do. i use crisco and flour on all my cake pans.. mine never stick. If it's wrecked id just get a new muffin tin, they aren't that expensive.
