Wilton Performance Aluminum Square Cake and Brownie Pan, 8-Inch, Silver

Great pan. Use for my everyday, not just baking.

Cooks evenly and good quality.

I got rid of my microwave years ago and my stove oven is just too big so I use my small counter top oven almost exclusively. I put the countertop oven on my covered porch to cook in summer to keep the heat outside. My neighbor like that idea but doesn't have a covered porch so she puts hers on a counter in her shed. This pan fits perfectly inside my small countertop oven. I own 4 of them now. 2 with covers and 2 without covers. Pros of pan 1) fits perfectly into my countertop oven 2) heat is distributed evenly 3) The sides of the pan are high enough so that I can put a variety of frozen vegetables on the bottom of pan and then add a raw hamburger patty (from samsclub) or a precooked but frozen chicken breast, or a piece of salmon, etc. on top and then cook everything at once. Or I will add a chicken breast let it cook and then dump vegetables on it later so everything is cooked in one pan. 4. Not easy to scratch however it can scratch but doesn't rust when it does - just cosmetic 5. DOES NOT RUST - I purchased several pans from the commissary and they rusted like hell had to toss. This is aluminum does not rust. 6. These pans do not break. I have a lot of glass Pyrex bowls/rectangular glass dishes and the Walmart similar glass bowls/dishes. Glass breaks, are very heavy, hard to move from home to home, don't stack up as nicely and are harder to clean than these pans. In retrospect, I should not have purchased the Pyrex. CONS OR NEUTRAL Pans are made of aluminum which some people believe builds up in a body and causes Alzheimer's. I am not worried because the convenience outweighs the fear if that is true. I don't drink diet sodas, use a water filter and do other things to cut down on health risks so hopefully it will all balance itself out.

I wanted vertical sides with sharp corners. This product doesn't have either.

MOM LOVES THE NEW CAKE PAN !!!

I've had many Wilton cake pans. You can't beat them anywhere. I do prefer the performance ones over the non-stick and they don't last near as long or cook as evenly. The coating wears out and eventually gets to where cleaning them is a pain. They are good but not decade pans. The performance pans are awesome. I've been using them for 45+ years. Someone made off with mine (7kids :) ) so needed to replace it.

I needed an 8x8 pan and went with this one since I have other Wilton aluminum baking pans and have never had any issues with them. This pan bakes evenly like my other Wilton pans. You will need to grease the pan well if cooking something that will stick and may need to soak it in warm water for a while after, but it cleans pretty easily. I have not noticed any staining on my Wilton pans but I don't cook anything acidic in them which could cause staining. Some reviewers complained of issues removing the label sticker inside the pan. I went slowly and it came off easily -not much adhesive was used- maybe they corrected this issue. The label on the side came off easily also. Definitely recommend this pan.

This pan is great for casual baking at home, especially for brownies — the size is perfect and it even fits nicely in larger toaster ovens. It’s lightweight, heats evenly, and gets the job done for simple bakes. However, there are a few downsides. It’s not scratch-resistant at all — even with gentle use, mine showed marks pretty quickly. Also, it’s not dishwasher safe, which makes cleanup a bit more tedious. And while it’s fine for basic baking, the shape and construction don’t really support professional-level cakes — the corners aren’t sharp enough for clean edges. Overall, it’s a good value for general use, but not something I’d rely on for more precise or heavy-duty baking needs.

arrivato pieno di ammaccature; lo tengo per evitare il fastidio di restituire, ma non sono soddisfatta

I love the pan, and it would have been five stars if not for the scratches and dents. I got a replacement, but that is also not exactly very smooth.

Good material

The metal is sturdy and a good thickness. It's a simple pan that works as it should.

Wonderful quality and a perfect size. Highly recommended for your kitchen
