Can I use paper cupcake moulds in the varoma?

[Stephanie]

I am going to make sticky date puddings tonight (yay winter).  I have 5 silicon cupcake moulds but I assume I'll need more.  Will the paper moulds work?  Not the old fashioned crinkly ones that need a muffin tray - the new type ones that have a strong base and stand alone.  They hold up well in the oven but I'm not sure how they will go with the steam?

I don't know can you sit them in a cup? Maybe you can use some cups?  Good luck

If they are the ones that have a firm rim around them ,  they may be ok.  But I would try and sit then in a cup like AB suggests.

Thanks, I'll try them in cups and see.  I could just use teacups I guess?  I'll report back
