That $50 silicone bread pan was a total waste of money
I bought this fancy silicone loaf pan from a kitchen supply store downtown because everyone said it would never stick. First use, my sourdough came out fine but the pan itself got this weird greasy film that won't wash off. Now after 4 bakes, the sides are all warped and my bread comes out lopsided every time. Has anyone else had silicone bakeware just give up on them like this?

Wait til you try putting silicone bakeware in the dishwasher once or twice, @leeknight is onto something with the heat thing but it's actually the steam that gets trapped under the pan and makes it warp. I had the exact same problem with a muffin pan and now it just sits in my drawer collecting dust. Silicone sounds great in theory but the material just isn't tough enough for regular baking.

Did you read that silicone bakeware has a lower melting point than metal so it can't handle high heat?
