Six-ingredient Sunshine Cake: Lemon, carrot, sour cream, and boxed mix = easy, breezy, sunny delight! This is one of my all-time favorite Pampered Chef recipes. I’ve made it in the microwave in our (now-retired) Stoneware Fluted Pan, and I wanted to try it in our Mini Fluted Cake Pan. It was perfect! The perfect size, and one box of cake mix makes enough for 12 cakes.
The gorgeous design of this Mini Fluted Cake Pan is sure to impress. The interior has a nonstick coating that ensures an even bake and easy release. The blue enamel coating gives the pans a vintage look that’s gorgeous in any kitchen.
