How to choose a cake pan

When choosing a cake pan, first consider the size and shape of the treats you’ll be baking. Etsy shops make and sell a world of cake pans to help you create your baked masterpiece. From round and square cake pans to mini cake pans , giant sheet pans , and every size in between, there’s a baking pan for you. Material also plays a factor when choosing the right pan. Metal cake pans are durable and conduct heat evenly, and non-stick metal versions make for easy cake removal. Glass cake pans , although heavier and slower to heat than metal pans, retain heat longer, making them ideal for desserts that are meant to be served warm like brownies or pudding cakes. Meanwhile, silicone cake pans are the ultimate utility pans—they’re flexible, non-stick, easy to clean, and conduct heat evenly.

There are many types of cake pans designed for all sorts of cakes. Here are a few examples: Bundt cake pans are round with a hole in the center to create the bundt cake’s ring shape. They can have ornamental indents, swirls, patterns, or shapes such as fruits, animals, and flower motifs for a traditional decorative appearance. They come in a variety of sizes, from mini bundt cake pans to standard, larger versions. Bundt cake pans are often used for crumbly coffee cakes, rum cakes, monkey bread, or gelatin molds. Angel food cake pans , also called tube pans, are ring-shaped with high, smooth sides that are either straight or tapered. In some versions, the center tube, bottom, and the sides of the pan fit together when baking and separate for easy cake removal. Use them for light and airy angel food cakes, chiffon cakes, and pineapple upside-down cakes. Springform cake pans have a removable base with adjustable sides that are secured with a clamp. Once the cake is cooled, open the clamp to release the sides for easy removal. Springform cake pans are frequently used to bake delectable cheesecakes, crumb cakes, and tortes.

Cake pans for all occasions

Etsy shops sell cake pans to suit every occasion, from weddings and festive family get-togethers to intimate dinners for two. Find novelty cake pans in a wide variety of playful shapes and themes to celebrate birthdays and seasonal holidays like Christmas, Easter, Halloween, and Valentine’s Day. Hosting a large gathering like an office party or baby shower? Cupcake, sheet cake, and cake pop pans are especially useful for baking plenty of cake to please a crowd. Once the baking is done, don’t forget to decorate your cake. Etsy sellers make all kinds of cake toppers and other cake decorations to add that special finishing touch to your home-baked creation.
