Fox Run Kitchenware Angel Food Cake Pan

Angel food cakes are incredibly delicate and prone to tearing if you try to flip them out of a standard pan. The two-piece design allows you to lift the outer ring away, leaving the cake resting on the base, which keeps the structure intact during removal.

While non-stick coatings are great for release, angel food cakes traditionally rely on clinging to the sides of the pan to climb and rise. If you find your cake isn't reaching its full height, you can lightly grease only the bottom of the pan, leaving the sides ungreased to help the batter grip the walls.

While the non-stick coating makes it easy to clean, we recommend hand washing this pan with warm, soapy water. Dishwashers can be harsh on non-stick surfaces over time, potentially shortening the lifespan of the coating.

The center tube is essential for even baking. Because angel food cake batter is thick and airy, the heat needs to penetrate the middle of the cake; the tube ensures the center bakes at the same rate as the edges, preventing raw or gummy spots.

Yes, this pan is excellent for any recipe that requires a tube pan, such as chiffon cakes, pound cakes, or even monkey bread. Just keep in mind that the non-stick coating works best for recipes that don't require the batter to 'climb' the sides of the pan.
