Be aware of copyright fees on licensed character cake pans. Chatacter cake pans are pans shaped like known figures in popular culture such as Bugs Bunny, Donald Duck, etc. These pans are meant for personal use only, not for selling the cakes you make with them. Even retail bakeries are under restrictions and must pay huge royalty fees for using them. Companies owning these copyrights are protective and will pursue individuals for copyright infringement.

If you are interested in selling character cakes, I suggest you create your own character design or use shaped, novelty cake pans not restricted by copyright. To know which pans are restricted, visit the Wilton website and view the shaped pans section. The restricted pans will state, “For home use only.”
