Glossary: cake pans

Any of various size pans used for baking cakes. The shape can be round, square, rectangular or festive (hearts, shamrocks and so forth). tube pans are used for angel food cake, ring molds for savarins and the like. Shiny pans are best for cakemaking because they reflect the heat and, thereby, produce cakes with tender crusts. When you're using glass cake pans, reduce the oven temperature by 25°F. See also baba; bakeware; cookware and bakeware materials; ladyfinger; madeleine; Pan Substitution Chart, page 777.
