Fat Daddio's Anodized Aluminum Round Cake Pans, 2 Piece Set, 9 x 2 Inch

Anodizing seals the pores of the aluminum, creating a non-reactive surface. This prevents metallic flavors from leaching into your food, making it safe to bake with acidic ingredients like lemon or buttermilk.

Fat Daddio's pans are designed for easy release, but they are not non-stick coated. For best results, we recommend greasing the pan or lining the bottom with parchment paper, especially for delicate sponge cakes.

Yes, their heavy-duty construction and straight sides make them excellent for deep-dish pizzas, breads, and savory casseroles. The solid bottom ensures there are no leaks during the baking process.

While the anodized finish is durable, we recommend hand-washing these pans with warm, soapy water. Dishwashers can cause discoloration or dull the finish over time, which may affect the pan's performance.

Yes, aluminum is a superior heat conductor. These pans reach baking temperatures quickly and cool down rapidly once removed from the oven, which helps prevent your cakes from overbaking in the residual heat.
