T-Fal #0980000 13x9x3.25" Aluminum Cake Pan

I learned of this pan from my Grandmother. We use it in the oven in place of anything that you would normally cover with aluminum foil. Just use the lid instead! It is called a "cake" pan but can actually be used for so much more! Last night I used it to make lasagna, which turned out great. The metal lid has two other benefits: 1) it can be used alone as a cookie sheet and 2) when you carry food or store it in the refrigerator, you don't have to worry about the lid getting smashed like the rubber ones that are on glass dishes. It is very lightweight. I am not sure how it will hold up over several years but for the price, you should get your money out of it.

We have used this pan for so many things, from cakes to casseroles. We have used it so much over the years I think we have worn holes in it! We love using the lid as a cookie sheet. Great for those personal frozen pizzas, fish sticks, or a half batch of cookies; anything that might be too small for a big ole' regular sized cookie sheet. Though it does not need it, we line it with foil before we cook and there is no clean up afterwards.

I love that after our family has a casserole for dinner, I can put the leftovers in the fridge and stack stuff on top of it. This also is great for taking places as your food does not get squashed.

We did not feel it was cheap quality. Our food cooked evenly and we have never noticed any funny taste from the aluminum seeping in to our food. In fact I am going to order 2 more. Our favorite food to cook in this is Pumpkin Pie Cake. Yum! Cheers!

My cake pans are terrific!!! I ordered 5 and I will be fixing fudge in them for the holidays and giving the pan/fudge as gifts. People LOVE the aluminum lid cake pan because the lids do not crack like the plasic lids and stuff can be stacked on them to make items easier to carry like to dinners etc. They arrived quickly and in good condition. Thank you!!!
