Ring-shaped desserts are considered good luck in some parts of the world, as they're often enjoyed to *ring* in a new year and to set the tone for good days ahead. And they're always appropriate when the Olympics come around, because what's more fitting than eating ring-shaped foods while watching the world's best athletes compete for gold?

While most people enjoy ring-shaped desserts simply because they're delicious, admittedly any excuse will do to indulge in circular doughnuts, cakes, cookies and pastries. The flavor combinations are endless, and fortunately cake pans, doughnut pans and ring-shaped candy and Jell-O molds all come in a large variety of sizes.

Helpful Tips for Scaling Ring Desserts to the Size You Need

When using your imagination along with a touch of math, you can typically scale most recipes up or down depending on the amount of servings that you need. When doing so, keep in mind that, baking is science. It's sometimes best to make the full recipe in smaller pans or double the recipe mixing each batch separately for the best end result.

  • Cakes freeze very well. It's often best to bake and cool completely before wrapping in freezer wrap. In this instance, it's best to reserve the glaze until the cake has thawed and, glaze just before serving.
  • Filled pastries are often quite easy to cut in half, in particular when the recipe calls for using puff pastry or crescent roll dough.
  • The dough for cookies, such as the Mexican Cookie Rings in this collection, will freeze well before or after, baking.
  • Retro Jell-O rings are always a welcome addition to the dessert table and can be embellished with seasonal fruits and berries and whipped cream.
