Metal bakeware can get pretty crusty over time, no matter how many times you’ve washed it. The ideal alternative is to use non stick baking cups liners—but not just any: food grade silicone cupcake liners. To make that transition easy, the AmazonBasics Reusable Silicone Baking Cups are among the best reusable baking cups in price and performance.

Why We Like It – AmazonBasics Reusable Silicone Baking Cups

A colorful set of 12 standard size cupcake liners for all your baking needs, which can withstand 500 degrees Fahrenheit and are dishwasher safe.

Pros
  • Withstands heat up to 500-degrees Fahrenheit
  • Versatile usage
  • Great pricing; free shipping included
Cons
  • Only has 12 silicone cups

Performance

When we used these, we immediately knew paper cupcake liners were a thing of the past. For starters: they’re non-stick. Paper liners are horrendous without some kind of oil or spray to prevent sticking. These silicone liners are also durable; paper often rips and tears if not handled carefully. More importantly, these silicone liners can withstand temperatures as hot as 500-degrees Fahrenheit, which is 50 degrees more than the LetGoShop Silicone Cupcake Liners Reusable Baking Cups and 100 degrees more than the NY Baking Co. Silicone Baking Cups.

Design

The size of the AmazonBasics Reusable Silicone Baking Cups are of standard size, having dimensions of 2.76 x 2.76 x 3.35 inches. Unlike the IELEK Silicone Cupcake Liners Bundle, these are only circular, but will fit your run of the mill standard muffin pan. The material used to create these multicolor cupcake liners is silicone. While they are non-stick, people found that some deserts can be frustrating to bake; make sure you use some kind of non-stick oil or equal if that happens.

Value

The AmazonBasics Reusable Silicone Baking Cups finds itself in a rather unique position. On one hand, you only get 12 in a single package—certainly for a good deal at $8 a pop. You can get an even better deal if you jump up to the pack of 24 for $12. While 12 silicone cups isn’t a lot, they’re reusable unlike paper cupcake liners. Furthermore, these are durable and tough enough to be used for other things like candy bowls. Lastly, they’re dishwasher, freezer, and microwave-safe. They’re definitely versatile and worth every penny.

AmazonBasics Reusable Silicone Baking Cups Wrap Up

Sure, you only get 12 cups in one package, but overall the AmazonBasics Reusable Silicone Baking Cups are some of the best cupcake liners on our list. Withstanding temperatures of 500-degrees Fahrenheit is impressive. They’re cheap at $8, with free shipping, and can be used for more than just baking. What more could you ask for?
