I received product from Chicago Metallic to facilitate this post. All opinions are my own.
The holiday season bring so much. First there’s Thanksgiving in November, then Christmas in December, and finally the usually big anticipated New Years that rounds off the old year and rings in the new. So with all these festivities brings family, friends, parties, and fun. Now, even though most people love the gatherings, this can be a very stressful time if you’re in charge of all the food. Thankfully, it seems like the norm these days is a potluck style where everyone chips in and brings a dish. So this year, no matter if you enjoy baking and cooking or not, Chicago Metallic has some great pans, accessories, and more to help!
Let’s Make Tea Cakes!
First up, we have the Chicago Metallic Tea Cake Pan. Perfectly suited to help you create bite size, delicious treats. And, they even offer up a simple recipe on their site! So try making some Lemon Tea Cakes today!
- 3 Large Egg Yolks
- 3 Egg Whites
- 4½ teaspoons Lemon Juice
- ½ cup Sugar
- Pinch Of Salt
- ½ cup Cake Flour
- Start by pre-heating your oven to 300 degrees.
- Lightly coat your Chicago Metallic Tea Cake Pan with cooking spray.
- In a small bow, combine egg yolks, lemon juice, and sugar. Beat until thick. Set aside.
- In another bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add salt and then continue beating until they peak.
- Gently fold egg yolk mixture into the egg white mixture.
- Sift flour over egg mixture about a tablespoon at a time, gently folding after each addition.
- Divide batter into pan equally among the 20 cups.
- Bake 25-28 minutes or till done.
- Invert pan and cool completely.
- Carefully remove from pan by loosening edges with a plastic knife and lightly guiding cakes out.
- Top each teacake middle with topping of your choice. (Whipped Cream, Ice Cream, Fresh Fruit, etc.)
- Enjoy!
I can NOT believe how easy these little cakes came out of the pan! Super impressed!
Chicago Metallic also has some more handy options that would be awesome during the holidays as well as throughout the year. Their Vintage Pie Crust Cutters are so cute and I know my daughter and I would enjoy using them when we make pies. The set of three includes: leaf, pumpkin, and turkey.
Or serve up some delicious mini-muffins for the kids with the help of their Commercial II Non-Stick Mini Muffin Pan.
Make up a batch of regular size muffins for the adults using their Commercial II Muffin Pan and gorgeous fall colored Silicone Baking Cups.
The possibilities are endless! The quality and variety of products that I’ve seen from Chicago Metallic Bakeware has me sold. Even my daughter has been requesting to do more baking because she loves their pans!

I love the way your tea cakes turned out. They look so professional. A good baking set is the right way to go if you have it. I am really loving the vintage pie crust designs. I love the metalover everything else. It really works well, and they look so nice when done.

I really like the tea cake pan. I really haven’t seen anything else like it. We do an open house on Christmas and make finger foods. These little cakes would be perfect.

These are some nice looking pans. BUT what else could you make in this tea cake pan? I am short on space so I like things that can be used many ways

Their baking pans and silicon cups look really nice. I do like the colors the cups come in. The crust cutters are also cute and would be fun to use with my own daughter, as she is starting to show an interest in baking now.

Those in your picture are so cute, they look pretty fancy for such simple ingredients. I would probably add a teaspoon of cinnamon to mine as I love it in desserts of all kinds.

The mini tea cake pan is adorable. I go to a lot of parties where I need to bring a dish. Bringing little tea cakes would be perfect and something unique. The recipe you posted looks simple and yummy. I also love the silicone muffin wrappers, because they’re reusable and easy to bake and clean. Chicago Metallic is also a great brand.

I have not seen a tea cake pan before. I love the shape of the cakes and how pretty they look when filled!

I’ve never heard of a tea cake, but to me these look like mini cupcakes. Great for appetizers vs a full-size dessert cupcake. And you could make them look really fancy, or just simply frost them.

So easy my husband can do it. This look delicious. I broke my pinky yesterday and I cannot believe how limiting it is. It would be nice if my husband baked me a special treat, so I am browsing for something easy for him.

I love tea cakes! Everytime I entertain, shower or party, I always make sure to have tea cakes. They are great made ahead of time with the finishing touches put on at the last minute and people love them. Thank you for this recipe.

I made tea cakes for a shower a few months ago. They were a big hit with guests.

These are so nice, and I think it is the first time I’ve seen or heard of tea cakes. Their cute mini-size is perfect, if you don’t want to have too much. A regular cupcake you don’t (or can’t) leave half uneaten, this is what I want to do next time there is a shower, etc.

Those Lemon tea cakes sound so good. I’m sure mine wouldn’t turn out as good as yours because to be honest I get nervous when trying new recipes.

I do not bake much throughout the year. But what would Christmas be without the aroma of baking cookies.
