Using a baking pan that is too large causes fewer problems than one that is too small. Most batters expand many times their size in baking. Using a pan that is too small will cause the finished product to crack at best, and to overflow the pans at worst. Using too large a pan will change the texture of the finished product. For example, baking brownies in a 9 x 9 pan when an 8 x 8 pan is called for means the batter will spread out too thin on the sides and at the corners, and it may burn. The brownies themselves will be too flat and will not have the desired chewy texture.

Why is it important to select the right pan size for baking products?

If the pan is too small, such as when baking a cake, the batter will rise as it bakes and will spill out over the sides of the pan and onto the bottom of the oven. Not only will this result in an unappealing cake, but the spilled batter will also burn and smoke up the oven. If you bake a cake in a pan that is too large, it will result in the cake being flatter and not as good a texture.
