What is a substitute for 8 x 2 cake pan?

- 9 x 13 inch sheet pan: You can bake your cake batter in a 9 x 13 inch sheet pan. The cake will be thinner and flatter, so you may need to adjust the baking time accordingly.

- Two 9-inch round cake pans: If you have two 9-inch round cake pans, you can bake your cake batter in each pan and then stack the layers to create a two-layer cake.

- A 9-inch springform pan: A 9-inch springform pan can also be used to bake your cake batter. Just be sure to line the pan with parchment paper to prevent the cake from sticking.

- Two 8-inch square baking pans: Two 8-inch square baking pans can also be used to bake your cake batter. Just be sure to grease and flour the pans before adding the batter.

- Muffin tin: If you don't have any of the above options, you can even bake your cake batter in a muffin tin. Just be sure to fill the muffin cups only about ⅔ full to prevent them from overflowing.
