I take old terry cloth towels and cut into wide stripes so I can triple fold long ways. Wet after folding, squeeze out excess water and wrap edge of cake pan and pin with straight pin. You can also take a paper towel the length to fit your pan fold to fit edge of pan. Fan fold paper towel and run cold water over it, squeeze excess water, it will stick to edge of pan. Wrap all the way around pan and overlap about an inch. It will dry out but not catch on fire. Cheaper than cake bands and works great.
