Know before you buy
Yes, the pan is highly versatile. Its deep capacity and even heat distribution make it excellent for pound cakes, meatloaf, layered casseroles, and even chilled desserts.
While the glaze is virtually non-stick and releases food easily, we recommend lightly greasing or flouring the pan for delicate cakes or breads to ensure a perfect release every time.
Yes, the stoneware is designed with high thermal resistance and can handle temperature changes from -9°F to 500°F. However, it is always best practice to avoid extreme, immediate temperature shocks to ensure the longevity of the glaze.
Yes, the iconic heritage scalloped handles are specifically designed to provide a secure and comfortable grip, making it easier to lift the pan safely even when wearing bulky oven mitts.
The premium stoneware glaze is scratch-resistant and durable enough to withstand the use of metal utensils, though using silicone or wooden tools will help maintain the pristine finish for longer.
