Overview

Not an oven or a full-size muffin tin, the Dash Express is a plug-in mini cupcake maker that bakes bite-size cupcakes and muffins between dual nonstick cooking surfaces. Pour in batter, close it, and lift the finished minis out with the included Easy-Lift tool.

Small batches done fast make it useful for frosting parties with kids and bake sale trays. Everything runs from the plug, so there is nothing to set, but that also means no control over browning and no full-size cupcakes.

Who it's for

Kid-friendly frosting sessions, classroom treats and bake sale trays suit a mini maker that turns out small batches back to back. Bakers chasing full-size cupcakes or adjustable heat will find it too limited.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Plug in and start, no setup
  • Easy-Lift tool releases cupcakes cleanly
  • Nonstick surfaces on both sides
  • Nonslip feet for stability
Cons
  • No temperature control or timer listed
  • Mini cupcakes and muffins only
  • Coating contains PTFE
  • Repeat batches needed for large crowds

Performance notes

Heat comes from surfaces above and below the batter, so minis bake through without flipping. Because no heat setting is listed, results depend on how much batter goes into each cup and how long each batch stays closed. Overfilled cups tend to give uneven tops.
