Know before you buy
This pan has a 12-cup capacity, which is the standard size for most traditional Bundt cake recipes.
While the premium non-stick interior is designed for easy release, we recommend lightly greasing and flouring the pan—or using a baking spray with flour—to ensure the intricate details of the design come out perfectly every time.
To preserve the life of the non-stick coating and the integrity of the aluminum, we recommend hand washing this pan with warm, soapy water.
Formed aluminum is excellent for heat conduction, which helps your cake bake evenly and develop a consistent, golden-brown crust across the entire surface.
No, you should avoid using metal utensils, as they can scratch or damage the PFOA-free non-stick coating. Stick to silicone, nylon, or wooden tools to keep the surface in good condition.
