✅ Product Benefits

• Versatile size and capacity: Standard 8 in (≈ 20 cm) diameter ideal for two-layer cakes, single large family cakes, pound cakes, or medium cheesecakes. Common depth ranges from ~2 in to 3 in for larger volume. 

• Material options to suit preference:

  • Aluminum pans: Lightweight, excellent heat conduction, ideal for even baking. Often found locally.

  • Carbon-steel non-stick pans: Provide clean release and easy cleaning; durable and inexpensive.

  • Silicone molds: Flexible, easy to unmold, dishwasher-safe; less browning than metal pans.

• Heat conduction & crust control: Anodized aluminum or heavier carbon steel distributes heat evenly and avoids over-browning or wrinkling. Darker pans tend to bake faster; lighter metals give lighter crust. 

• Classic shape: Round molds remain the standard for celebrations—well-suited for layered sponge cakes, birthday cakes, and common family baking tasks.

ℹ️ Usage & Care Recommendations

• Pan depth considerations: Choose a 2 in (~5 cm) deep pan for standard layer cakes; 3 in (~7.5 cm) if you want extra rise or create tall single-layer cakes. Taller pans also help prevent batter overflow. 

• Prepare your mold:

  • Aluminum or steel: Grease and line base before baking.

  • Non-stick: Light greasing recommended, but parchment still improves release.

  • Silicone: Place on flat tray or sheet when baking to prevent warping.

• Material maintenance:

  • Avoid metal utensils in non-stick or silicone to prevent scratches.

  • Wash promptly, dry fully, and store flat to preserve shape.
