Know before you buy
The pan bakes two separate halves that you can join together after cooling. You can use a small amount of frosting, ganache, or a simple sugar glaze as 'glue' to secure the two pieces together once they are removed from the pan.
No, this pan is not dishwasher safe. Because it is made of seasoned cast iron, you should hand wash it with warm water and a stiff brush, then dry it thoroughly and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust.
While the pan comes pre-seasoned with natural vegetable oil, it is still recommended to lightly grease and flour the interior before each use. This ensures the intricate pineapple details release cleanly from the cast iron.
Yes, the pan is versatile enough for other baked goods like cornbread or molded gelatin desserts. Just keep in mind that cast iron is intended for oven use only and should not be placed in the microwave or freezer.
The pan weighs 8.53 pounds. While the cast iron construction makes it quite sturdy and heavy, the integrated dual handles are designed to provide a secure grip when moving it in and out of the oven.
No, this pan is free of PFOA and PTFE. Its nonstick properties come entirely from the 100% natural vegetable oil seasoning, which builds up a better, more effective finish the more you use it.
