Congratulations on your purchase of the Cold Molds 9" x 13" Quarter Sheet Cake mold! We are pleased to offer this item and we are sure you will find that it is the easiest way to make ice cream cakes.

You will notice that a corrugated plastic frame is included with your quarter sheet cake mold.

DO NOT THROW THIS PLASTIC FRAME AWAY!

One of the main advantages of the Cold Molds system of making ice cream cakes is the flexibility of the molds. This flexibility makes it easy to remove your finished product from the mold. Just place the ice cream into the pan, press it in well, freeze it and when it has hardened, peel off the mold. It is that simple. No greasing the pan. No heating the pan before removing.

This flexibility, however, makes handling a pan of this size and shape a bit more difficult, as the sides of the mold can bulge if too much product is pressed into the mold. We advise that you place the cake pan on a cake cardboard or a rigid "cafeteria style" serving tray when filling it to provide stability for the bottom of the pan.

In addition, we have engineered a simple, washable plastic frame to provide further stability for the walls of the pan. Although inexpensive replacement frames are available from Cold Molds, the frame that arrived with your pan should last through many use cycles.

During our testing of this product with a group of ice cream professionals, many were able to develop skills with the pan that made the use of the frame unnecessary.

We hope you enjoy your new product and we would love to hear your feedback!
