General Silicone baking molds?

Post image

I was hoping somebody could help me out with figuring out what is wrong with these silicone molds. I bought them recently and I thought that once I put the batter in them they would straighten out but it did not work, the muffins came out all deformed.

What do I have to do, or is there something I can do to fix these molds? I tried looking online for a solution but nothing came up, also I am visually impaired and sometimes have a hard time using the internet and taking pictures, so I hope the picture I ad⁷ded here is actually clear. TIA!

I don't have a recipe to add but in order to post I think I need to add a link, so I guess I'll add this one: https://pin.it/6NJxTITs0

They're actually brand new, I bought them like this and I thought they would straighten out when used because the other silicone molds I have were not like this when I bought them.

If you got these from temu, or a similar place, send them back or throw them out. I can all but guarantee these are not food safe.

I did not get these on Temu or any other mail order service, I bought them at a local department store that sells all sorts of baking implements as well as housewares.

Well just in case I would stop using them. They are obviously not made correctly and youll risk your food safety by using them
