PME Foil Pastel Rainbow Cupcake Liners (100pc)

I bought these cupcake liners specifically for the colours to match a party theme. They are a nice assortment of pastel shades but they are not very practical. Right out of the packaging, I noticed that the liners appeared a little worn with some visible tears in the outer coloured layer of the liner (not all the way through the foil). They are quite difficult to separate and in doing so they loose their shape because they need to be spread out/flattened in order to pull them apart. I also found that because separating them required a bit of maneuvering, this caused the outside of the liners to actually crack a bit and so the liners had some small tears and cracks visible through the colour. I had a few liners completely rip when I was trying to separate them. They did hold up well during the baking process and there was no greasiness on the outside of the liner which is sometimes the case with paper ones. They are more difficult to remove from the cupcake base than paper liners and I found that kids in particular, had a really hard time removing the liners.
