Finding the Right Fit in Fluted Cups

Selecting the perfect baking cup size is just as important as finding the right pattern and material. In order to find the ideal fluted baking cup size for your treats, Hoffmaster provides measurements for overall diameter, base diameter and wall height.

To compare these measurements against your current baking cup inventory, flatten a fluted bake cup on a hard surface. Measure the round center for the base and the height of the bake cup for the wall height. To find the overall diameter, multiply the wall height by two and add to the measurement of the base diameter. Watch our video to learn more.
