Bundt pan recommendations

Starpolisher — Tue, 21 Apr 2020 13:57:29 GMT

Would like recommendations for a bundt pan. DH has been baking and wants to make a bundt cake. I use to have one but haven't used it in years and now can't find it...lol! I'm so not a baker!😂 What size is best? 10, 12 cup? He'll be using a boxed cake with additions. Anything else I should look for?(e.g., handles, non stick, etc.)I'd like to order one today. Probably from Amazon. TIA! 🥮

Amazon has some nice bundt pans - Baker's Secret is a good one. I don't think they come in too many sizes, like regular cake pans. They're easy to frost too! Enjoy!

@Effie54 @jackthebear

Thank you so much for the quick responses! The recipe says 10 to 12 cup. Just wanted to make sure I get the standard size so as not to need another one. You recommended Bakers Secret and Bakers Joy. I'll look at them. Thanks again!

I've used the same Nordicware Bundt pan for the past 30-40 years and still going strong. I do have to grease and flour it but I think they all need that.

Nordic ware are great pans. You can also check out King Arthur Flour. They carry nice ones as well.

Nordicware is what I've always used. I also take a can of Pillsbury chocolate frosting, open the can, nuke it for 30 seconds and pour it's over cake once it's baked.

HSN has Curtis Stone's Bundt pan which is the best ever.

I tried it out with a cake mix, used no spray and the cake popped right out.

Another recommendation for Nordic Ware, excellent quality and made in Minnesota.

@sallyann38

@Starpolisher that HSN one by Curtis Stone doesn't seem available now. I just looked on the HSN site.

I would choose the 12 cup size and get the Nordic Ware bundt pan:

You might as well use NordicWare - they're the best. And, last I heard, they are made in the USA.

I also recommend Nordic Ware Bundt Pans. I have the Elegant Party Bundt, and this pretty shape makes it simple to cut uniform slices.

@Starpolisher - I also highly recommend Nordic Ware Bundt pans; their quality and durability merit their slightly higher pricing in the market. The pans referenced in the posts from @KatieB and @PA Mom-mom are the classic size and style that is likely to be of greatest use value for you. I have dozens of Nordic Ware Bundt pans in various sizes and specialty shapes, and they've been going strong for many years. They take up a lot of space, but I sure love them! Happy shopping and baking...

ETA: I also recommend metal pans for Bundt cakes—the beautiful ridges and molded designs are not as good in the silicone and stoneware versions, and metal bakes the most evenly as well. And although nonstick sprays like Baker's Joy and others with flour infused are great, they do end up leaving some residue over time, no matter how carefully you apply them or scrub them away afterward. The traditional method of using butter and flour or cocoa (or even sugar in some recipes) to prepare your pans is really the best approach for keeping them in tip-top condition.
