Fun Uses for Muffin Tins
Beverage Caddy
Next time you are entertaining and need to carry a handful of drinks reach for a muffin tin. Depending on the size of your pan it may fit anywhere from 6 to 12 glasses.
Condiment Holder
This is a nice tip for serving large crowds: use a muffin tin to contain condiments like ketchup, mustard, relish, diced onions and barbecue sauce. You can squeeze the condiments right into the pan and provide serving spoons.
