Where I Can Buy Paper Containers For Mini Pastries

When ever i try to cook a chicken pie it goes wrong?

Sounds like you might have the pot pie too high in your oven, or that the top coils of your particular oven are heating to a higher temperature than the bottom ones.

To compensate for eithr of those, try moving the cooking rack lower... if that ends up too low, then just put the pie on a metal pie pan or glass baking dish, etc., to raise it a bit higher, or even on a block of wood or a couple of logs of scrunched aluminum foil.

You can buy a cheap oven thermometer from a grocery or Walmart, etc., then check the temps in differnet parts of your particular oven if you want to see if that could be true, and also to get true specific temps for your oven.

Do be aware though that the bottom and side crusts of a pot pie will never brown and crisp up the way the top will because their moisture is trapped. So if that's what you're thinking of, the only option for crispy crust on all sides would be to do something like you're doing (perhaps just with the bottom crust baked alone), or I think some of those pot pies come in containers which are coated with a "self-browning" material.**

**There's also a special browning paper (in a roll like waxed paper) that you can buy at the grocery store which could work if you cut a round piece to put under the frozen bottom inside the metal container, but don't know. I just looked at mine (it's called "Microcrisp" microwave crisping/browning wrap) but guess that's only for the microwave.

How to pour batter into mini bundt cake pan?

you should still use a pastry bag that is long and narrow. you have to cut the end but don't cut a big hole, that way you can have total control. hold the tip of your bag and once you're done squeeze the end with your fingers to stop it from flowing further. i am a pastry chef and that's how we do it. hope that helps. : )

What are your interesting thoughts or perceptions about the uses of food containers or food packaging?

For my own storage or packaging uses, I prefer either metal tins, or foldable paper boxes.I use the tins for cakes and cookies. I use the paper boxes for cookies, pastries, mini cakes and themed to-do orders. I stencil the boxes by hand for decour.

How long does a cheesecake last in the fridge?

In a properly chilled refrigerator if the cheesecake is handled properly, removed briefly to cut off a slice and immediately returned to the fridge, the cheesecake should be safe to eat for at least a week. But the quality of the crust will loose it’s crispness and get soggy over that time.

Can you heat up anything in a toaster oven?

You can heat up pretty much anything in a toaster oven that you can in a regular oven but not everything. For instance, liquids.It's rare that you'll use a regular oven to heat up soup or coffee. You would use a microwave, stove or hot plate for that. Making spaghetti also requires liquid so same thing goes. I suppose it's possible that it can be done but you would want to keep a strict eye on any pot you use to keep it from boiling over. And I'm not sure how long it would take for something to come to the boil in an oven. But feel free to experiment and let us know here.People survived fine long before microwaves and will long after them.
