good quality.Bake excellent angel food cake. Did not fall out the pan. Easy to remove cake from pan with detachable part. Easy clean up.

Wow, do I love this pan! I was hesitant to buy a $10 bakeware for something as delicate as angel food cake, but I'm happy I went with this one. I've used it several times with absolutely no problems. The tiniest bit of baking spray is all that's needed to make the cake release perfectly. With other pans (for different desserts, so maybe that's the real issue), I can grease and parchment paper the bajangle out of them and still end up with patches of stuck desserts.

It's a great size for a typical angel food cake recipe. It washes up beautifully. I believe the instructions say it is dishwasher safe, but I haven't had to test that. A simple rinse and swipe of a dish cloth is adequate. If the cake does come out of the oven adhered slightly to the edge at the top, it's easy to release it with the tip of a rubber spatula, so you don't run the risk of damaging the nonstick quality by jamming butter knives down the sides of the cake.

I don't own any other bakeware...Read more
