Cupcakes are fun to decorate and fun to eat. But occasionally, you have to bake a bigger cake. The Dimensions Giant Cupcake Pan from Wilton gives you the option of baking a giant cupcake, and sticking with the fun of decorating and eating a cupcake in larger sizes. The pan actually bakes the cupcake in two pieces--the top and the base--which you'll be able to assemble after backing. To put the pieces together, you'll need to spread a thin layer of icing so that the top and the bottom hold together. The fully constructed cake will stand about 8 inches tall, not counting any frosting or decorations you choose to add. There are quite a few different options when it comes to decorations, too. While you can stick with a traditional cupcake design, Wilton offers a whole online list of decorating ideas for this pan.

The Dimensions Giant Cupcake Pan is made from cast aluminum, is professional quality, and has a lifetime warranty. The pan has a nonstick surface that makes releasing your finished cakes simple, and it also makes clean up go a lot faster. The pan holds 10 cups of batter, and measures 15.5 inches by 8.24 inches by 3.75 inches. The Dimensions Giant Cupcake Pan costs $30.99.
