Nordic WarePlatinum Collection Bundt Pan, 6-Cup

This is a 6-cup Bundt pan. Standard-sized Bundt pans are 10-12 cups. Please stop leaving low reviews because it’s smaller than expected or too small. It’s listed in the title of the item and description. It is the perfect size for Keto cakes, which tend to require smaller baking pans. See pictures of the Keto Lemon Cake that I made today.Next point, you must HAND wash this with mild soap and warm water. The manufacturer tells you so. Why? Because it has a coating on it. Use a gentle sponge. Those who claim that the cake came out easily the first time, but not in subsequent uses probably did not properly HAND wash the pan and messed up the coating. I recommend NOT using a knife or other metal utensil to loosen the cake. Use a spatula so you don’t scratch the coating.This is a wonderful pan that, if properly cared for, should become a family heirloom.The manufacturer says it is best to apply butter (or other grease) with a silicone brush and ensure you generously coat all the crevices. Don’t forget the center. I also greased the rim. See my picture of a properly greased pan. They also recommend flouring the pan. I didn’t find it necessary. I find flouring messy and harder to clean. Your choice. I cooled the cake for about half an hour and it readily came out. Place a plate on top of the cake in the pan and turn it upside down. You can see from my picture that the batter rose to the very top of the pan. It came out perfectly.I believe the max heat it can handle is 400 degrees Fahrenheit.It may look full-size in the pictures. It is HALF the size of a regular Bundt pan. Highly recommended.

This is a beautiful, sturdy little pan. It's half the size of the usual large bundt pan one associates with a bundt cake, but otherwise looks the same. It feels sturdy and solid. The handles make for super-easy flipping when you put a plate over the top of the baked cake to remove the cake from the pan. I've been spraying with Baker's Joy making sure to get all the nooks & crannies without creating puddles, and I wait 10 minutes after removing from oven before I flip the cake out of the pan. It falls out, perfectly. It's easy to clean with just a small bit of extra attention from the sponge to make sure that each crevice is grease-free before drying. I've been halving normal-sized recipes for bundt cakes, making sure I don't fill the batter higher than 1.25" from the top, and it's made excellent, pretty little cakes. This would also make a lovely gift for anyone baking for one, two, or a small family. Kind of luxurious, fun and useful all at the same time.

If you are a serious baker, cast aluminum Nordic Ware is hard to beat and well worth the price. I bake for Farmers Markets and use several of their 6 and 12 cup Bundt pans. They are very heavy cast aluminium and cook very evenly. The non-stick can use a little help, so I make up a little blend of palm oil and rice flour to coat the pan with; by the way, this is true with every non-stick pan I have ever used. Palm oil is great because it is a solid at room temperature and stays put when you brush a very thin coating on the pan. A word of caution, these pans are very strong and durable, but only if you treat them with the respect they deserve, no metal utensils, scouring or dishwashers. In the rare case where a cake sticks to the pan, just soak it in warm water until the residue softens, and then wash it out.A little trick re successfully removing your cake from the pan. Remember the cake is soft and fragile when it it hot, so let it cool until barely warm before removing it from the pan. Do not let it get cold because the oils will congeal and stick to the pan which is a recipe for disaster. If you get busy doing something else and the pan over cools, just put it back in a warm oven for 2-3 minutes and then the cake will come out nicely. Enjoy.

The Bundt Pans are nice and worth the money…

I like the pan and I used the pan for baking cakes.

Cutest little pan ever! It's my first bunt pan and wanted to get the best one I could. Very sturdy feeling, and love that it has handles. It fits perfectly in my 6.5 quart Ninja Foodi, which is what I originally wanted it for. My banana bread recipe fit in it nicely without alteration. It took less time to bake--about 23 minutes--compared to a normal 45 minutes. I let it sit in the pan on a cooling rack for 10 minutes, flipped it over and it immediately fell out!I like to know the ingredients I use, so I mixed together equal amounts of olive oil, AP flour, and butter and used that to butter the pan. Worked like a charm!Can't wait to try other recipes!

Two of these 6 cup pans equal one of the standard, traditional 12 cup or 10 inch Bundt pans. They are sturdy, heavy aluminum and the handles make it so much easier to handle and arrange hot pans in the oven than the older pans without handles. Nordic Ware made excellent products thirty years ago when I bought my first full-sized Bundt pan, and they continue to make excellent products today. And they're made in the USA!I had been avoiding baking my favorite Bundt-style cakes because the cakes were simply too large to use up in a reasonable amount of time. Now with two of these mini-pans I can make one recipe, dividing the batter evenly between them and end up with one small cake to freeze or give away and another for immediate use. Perfect! It wouldn't be difficult to halve a recipe to make only enough batter for one cake as an alternative.The first cake I tried baking in these was a chocolate pound cake (check verybestbaking.com and search for Rich Chocolate Pound Cake if you'd like the recipe) and they came out beautifully. The cakes released from the pans easily without damage after cooling and looked terrific. Just remember to adjust the baking times to account for less batter. I found for this pound cake, for example, 35-40 minutes in a 350 degree (Fahrenheit) oven was perfect as opposed to the 55 to 65 minutes for a full sized cake as suggested in the recipe.

Love this product!

I made a lemon Bundt cake and, having first sprayed the tin with cake spray, managed to get the cake out easily. Tin creates a lovely shape which looks great when served to guests. Expensive but worked well and tin arrived Undamaged.

Beste Kuchenform, Kuchen sind immer aussen knusprig, innen saftig, gehen gut auf. Paar Minuten mehr oder weniger im Ofen machen dem Kuchen nichts aus, es trocknet nicht aus wie in billigeren Formen.Am Anfang habe ich wie vom Hersteller beschrieben die Form mit Butter eingereibt, dann mit Mehl bestreuet. Mittlerweile besprühe ich die Form nur mit dem ganz einfachem Backtrennspay, klappt auch sehr gut, nur ein Tick nicht so perfekt wie mit Butter und Mehl.Ich werde definitiv weitere Formen von NordicWare kaufen.

Moule de très très bonne qualité. Je savais à quoi m'attendre avec la marque Nordicware.Je recommande cet article sans problème.

just invested in my first ever bundt pan and received it today!As an inexperienced user, I was wondering if these imperfections are part and parcel of a nordic ware bundt pan, and I'd be able to make perfectly good cakes with this pan, or if these are red flags and I should be returning this pan asap. Turned to Chowhound for community advice and seemed like this isn't the standard. Returning this.Edit:Replacement pan had the same issues - worse in fact. Re: the 4th & 5th photos. Getting a refund for this.
