Notes:

For the homemade molds to shape chimney cakes, you need:

Flat board lids from disposable foil pans
Aluminum tape
Aluminum foil to roll

For better results you can use wooden ladles. Put each ladle through a mold and put ladles onto a baking sheet covered with non stick paper. Use the edges of the tray to back the ladles so the dough almost doesn’t touch the tray.
