A muffin or cupcake tray is a mold in which muffins or cupcakes are baked. A single cup within a regular muffin tin is {{convert|3.5|usoz|ml|order=flip}}{{citation needed|date=May 2017}} and most often has room for 12 muffins, although tins holding 6, 8, 11, 24, and 35 muffins do exist. A single cup within a mini muffin tin is {{convert|2.125|usoz|ml|order=flip}}{{citation needed|date=May 2017}}, and because these are less common, there are several standard numbers of cups per tin, including 6, 12, and 24 cups per tin. A single cup within a jumbo muffin tin is {{convert|8.1875|usoz|ml|order=flip}}{{citation needed|date=May 2017}}, and again because these are uncommon, there are several standard numbers of cups per tin, including 4, 6, and 12 cups per tin.{{cite web|title=On The Gas - Cookware Shapes|url=https://onthegas.org/cookware/the-best-pots-and-pans-sets-our-top-5|accessdate=24 March 2017}}{{failed verification|date=May 2017}}
Muffin tins can be made out of aluminum, stainless steel, cast iron, or silicone. In addition, aluminum and stainless steel muffin tins may be coated with Teflon or other non-stick coatings. Historically, galvanized steel has been used for muffin tins but this is no longer common.{{cn|date=March 2017}}
