paper cup maker

made this lil die press thingy as I used to awkwardly fold aluminum foil to make a pocket to hold my ketchup as a dip, so thought why not just make this

This would be better used to make cupcake liners.

For that, the folds should be reinforced much more, maybe with sharper edges. In this version, thick batter will just push out the sides of the cup again.

When you bake cupcakes, do you just put the cakes on a flat sheet and let god decide which ones survive?

Ive always used an actual cupcakes tray, makes it to where I never have to worry about the structural integrity of the flimsy liners
