Know before you buy
No, the pan comes pre-seasoned from the factory with vegetable oil, so it is ready to use right out of the box.
No, this cast iron pan must be hand-washed. To maintain the seasoning and prevent rust, avoid the dishwasher and dry it thoroughly immediately after cleaning.
While cast iron is naturally durable, it is not a non-stick surface. We recommend greasing and lightly flouring the fluted grooves thoroughly before adding your batter to ensure a clean release.
The potholders are designed to protect your hands when handling the hot pan after it comes out of the oven. They are heat-resistant up to 450°F, but they should not be placed inside the oven during the baking process.
Yes, this pan is made of pure cast iron and is completely free of PFAS, PFOA, and other synthetic non-stick coatings.
No, this is a solid, one-piece cast iron pan. It does not feature a removable bottom, so you will need to invert the pan to release your cake once it has cooled slightly.
