WOW ! look what I found.....had no idea,but leave it to the Americans to come up with this. I have not looked to see whether something similar is available here in the UK.
Re your question..I would imagine it is possible,but I would only fill the bowl about 1/3 full, as it would not bake evenly, and times may vary as it is glass. You would then need to bake the base in a tin of the same diameter as the dome.
