Always put a springform pan on a baking sheet

u/Thaumato9480 1d ago

Always use the correct bottom for the springform.

u/josmarti79 1d ago

And don’t lift it off of the pan

I thought that audio had finally gone away. Don’t unmute

u/nzerinto 1d ago

For those of us who always have Reddit on mute, the audio is the stupid Tiktok "oh no" song, so now you don't need to let curiosity get the better of you.....

I was watching Goodfellas the other day and noticed it playing during one of the bar scenes. Got instantly triggered by one of my favourite movies.

u/just_nobodys_opinion 1d ago

SAME!! Watched it on Saturday and heard this!

u/EmergencyTaco 2d ago

I grew up listening to a "60s hits" CD that my dad would play in the car. My favorite song on it was "Leader of the Pack" by The Shangri Las, who also performed "Remember" (the Oh No) song.

For that reason alone, I can stomach this background track. But that's it.

u/pcetcedce 1d ago

I cannot describe the level of hatred I have for that song.

u/CreateNewCharacter 2d ago

Something about tracks sampling classic music is simply more tolerable than completely original made for social media tracks.

Please everyone downvote the main post

Just mute it instead of commenting bro you’d save yourself a lot of time

You're part of the problem.

u/Silicon_Knight 2d ago

You do this one time and never again, also dont buy cheep spring from pans, they warp like shit.

Also, I love when you can see panic set in and that sense of "what do I do" vs. like moving the pan AWAY from the oven edge. Easier to clean the cooktop.

u/Thaumato9480 1d ago

I don't think the issue is that it's a cheap springform.

It looks like it's upside down... and the bottom is for a larger springform.

4

u/RoosterToes1 1d ago

It does look like that.

u/josmarti79 1d ago

It didn’t fail. She lifted the form off of the pan. She failed.

u/lobeline 2d ago

I thought that song was retired?

u/Two_Digits_Rampant 2d ago

Downvoted for that aural cancer

u/prolix 1d ago

This song triggered half of the people who are posting in this thread enough to talk about it. So its increasing traffic and discussion. More incentive for people to keep using it.

u/That_Sudden_Feeling 5h ago

Bro browses reddit with the sound on

You miss that toothpick now?

u/Nox___ 2d ago

For pure liquid

u/SpamOJavelin 1d ago

The pan is upside down - the ridges which are supposed to clamp the base in place are clearly visible at the top.

u/galtpunk67 2d ago

spring form pan- for making round cakes.

 the bottom tray , people usually put it in the wrong way up.  the 'lip' has to face the bottom of the spring form...  after cake is baked, release the spring, and you now have a cake sitting on a flat tray, of which, you can just slide it onto a cooling rack.  if its upside down, you gotta dig the cake out.

u/UrQuan778 1d ago

Wow, a legitimately informative comment. Non-baker here and I've never used a spring form pan, but if I did I definitely wouldn't have thought that the lip on the bottom tray was supposed to face the bottom (although it seems obvious when you point it out). If I ever do bake a round cake, you will have saved me some frustration, so thank you!

u/VonGrippyGreen 2d ago

That goddamn fucking song needs to die. So obnoxious, so unnecessary, so annoying. I have downvoted every single post I've ever had the displeasure of seeing ruined by that song. Dropping coffins is supposed to be hilarious. Instant karma is supposed to be satisfying. Road ragers overtaking on the shoulder and then crashing is supposed to make me feel warm and fuzzy, but not today! Some dipshit decided to take out what is probably an entertaining string of curse words (even better when it's a thick accent) and replace it with the worst song in all of the internets.

What the fuck is that song, anyway? I've never heard it anywhere but on internet clips. My music taste is stuck in the 90s, so it's never been algorithmed into my spotify, thank fuck. I could maybe tolerate it by a live lounge band with a thick haze of cigarette smoke hanging in the air and cheap beer in pitchers that only fill 2.5 glasses so you get tricked into buying a second pitcher and are too buzzed up to care that this song fucking sucks.

I hope the OP's dog chews their favourite shoes and gives them a reason to listen to this stupid fucking song. OH NO! OH NO!

u/SlideItIn100 2d ago

Why that horrible so-called music?

u/Bilaakili 2d ago

Remember walking in the sand.

u/Lagunamountaindude 2d ago

Anyone using that no no no song should receive a permanent ban

u/lewisfairchild 2d ago

She seems nice though.

u/OCCAMINVESTIGATOR 2d ago

It puts the latch on the handle.

Obligatory downvote for use of that music.

u/KillaThing 1d ago

Downvote. Shit audio.

u/Big-Village9198 1d ago

Downvote for the No No song. It’s just as obnoxious as the Jet 2 Holiday audio

u/whatyoumeanmyface 1d ago

I knew before I tapped the speaker that it would be that horrible oh no song. When am I gonna learn.

u/No-Deer379 1d ago

No business being in the kitchen, and yeah the rag was a big help

1

u/The_Vampire_King 2d ago

oooohhh, that’s why all my cheesecake instructions include wrapping the pan in a few layers of foil

u/Ring_Peace 2d ago

No that is to keep the water out not the mix in.

u/dontipitova9 2d ago

What was this even meant to be..?

u/Bilaakili 2d ago

I bet they do.

u/mEDWARDetector 2d ago

There is a point where it’s best to just watch the mess unfold infront of your very eyes. This is that moment.

Step back and enjoy the show!

u/the-artistocrat 1d ago

She chose…poorly

u/atx_original512 1d ago

So the cheese cake didn't set......

u/Wuzcity 1d ago

Lean over the open hot oven while you do it next time.

u/the_kun 1d ago

lol you make this mistake once —- the spring form pan is supposed to lock into the bottom but this one is clamped upside down 😂 so it’s definitely not locked in place 

1

u/Curious-Spell-9031 1d ago

what were they making?

1

u/gorgeousgirlycute333 1d ago

why didn’t she shut the oven door at least?? god this is gonna be a disaster to clean

u/The_Only_Egg 1d ago

We’re NOT going back to this fucking song. Twice today!

1

u/Ed3vil 1d ago

What did she expect?

The side is supposed to clamp around the bottom.

This bottow is too big, and the side is just placed on top of it...

1

u/wobbly-cheese 23h ago

.. and this way you don't have to cut the cake! great trick huh. dont forget to like and subscribe.

1

u/Wildcardbby94 2d ago

Any reason not to place a hand on the bottom other than absurd stupidity or bait?

u/Feminist_Hugh_Hefner 2d ago

I love the that moment when they think there is still something to be saved, but then realize the futility... "if I catch this batter in my hands maybe it will.....ahhh crap...."

u/OkieBobbie 2d ago

Recipe called for 175 Celsius. She tried baking it at 175 fahrenheit.

u/Nox___ 2d ago

As you saw she didn't get it in the oven so yeah
