It has to be oven safe (pyrex is the best choice)
If it does not specifically say that it is oven safe then it will likely explode in your oven!.!.!.!.and won't that be fun to clean up!!?!!?!!?

If the glass is indeed safe for heating, 'oven safe' will be embossed on the bottom of it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Pyrex glass is best!. Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

the glass must be oven safe otherwise it will crack!Www@FoodAQ@Com

needs to be special glass designed to take the heat of the ovenWww@FoodAQ@Com

It should work in a glass bowl i use glass stuff to cook my cakes and it turns out just fineWww@FoodAQ@Com

You might have trouble getting it to bake all the way through!. It would probably be really charred on the outside edges and raw in the middle!. Try using that Betty Crocker cake thingy!.!.!. I saw it on TV!.!.!. the Bake N Fill!. You'll have way better results!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

As long as its oven proof youll be fine, but don't use if your not sure as it will crackWww@FoodAQ@Com

It has to be oven-safe glass and you should bake at 25F below the suggested baking temperature!.

If the glass is oven safe go for it!.
Betty Crocker does have a cake pan in the bowl shape!. I just got one at Bed Bath and Beyond!. The pan is called " Bake n Fill" Good Luck!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You want to make sure it is a tempered glass piece so that it can withstand the heat!. Some name brands of glass include Pyrex and Fire King!.

If it is not heat tempered, it may shatter in the oven and make a mess!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
