Wonderful. 2-3 times as deep as any I see here,. They are usually 1/2-3/4" deep here. I shopped in Paris at Bon Marche and didn't find any deep ones there, either. The springform pans are too deep. |

Pandora, is it possible to buy an inexpensive, disposable pie plate/pie pan made from aluminum foil? That is very common here in the supermarket ‹ there are *many* sizes and styles of pie plates and bread pans made of heavy foil.

That is very common here in the >supermarket ‹ there are *many* sizes and styles of pie plates and bread >pans made of heavy foil. Just a thought. I sincerely doubt it... especially after trying to find the equivalent of what would be an American style "drug store" and an American style "stationary store" in the heart of Paris. Not because I wanted American style, but because I was looking for certain things that I never found.... one was a spiral bound notebook. I found plenty of hard cover, hard bound blank paged books - but no spiral note books of any size, a block or two from La Sorbonne (my hotel was on Ile-Saint Louis). Sheesh. Don't those people take any real notes? -- I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number of carats in a diamond. Mae West |

I asked my British neighbor to bring me some from the UK, but they were so tiny I had to make six pies instead of two for a job. I was pleased to find an 8" silicon pie plate at a German supermarket and I wish I had bought ten. |

I have found that, but they are not so deep. I will make in my cake pan wrapped with oven paper. Now I have decided. Then I will try to find on line a proper pie pan. Thank you -- Cheers Pandora |
