What is the maximum temperature the tin can handle?

Does it require greasing before every use?
While the silicone is non-stick, lightly greasing is recommended for delicate recipes or recipes with high sugar content to guarantee a flawless finish.

Yes, the material is freezer friendly, making it great for chilling layered desserts or no-bake treats.
How do I store this tin to avoid damaging the frame?

Troubleshooting
Batter leaking before reaching the oven
Ensure the tin is placed on a flat, rigid baking tray before filling to support the base.
Baked goods sticking to the surface
Allow the baked item to cool for 10-15 minutes; the silicone will shrink slightly as it cools, facilitating a cleaner release.
Stubborn stains or residue
Soak the tin in warm soapy water for 15 minutes before placing it in the dishwasher, or use a soft sponge to gently scrub.
