When turning the pan upside down to allow it to cool will the bottom collapse on the cake causing it to fall as it did in the last 2 piece pan I used?

I have used this pan several times all with boxed angel food mixes, and no specific brand. This pan is great . I have not had any collapsing. I follow the directions on the cake mix box to the letter.

No I turned it over and when it released I loosened bottom with a plastic knife. It came off easily and the cake was beautiful. This is a wonderful cake pan.

I use it for angel food cakes and I haven't had one slip out prematurely. My cakes are usually pretty tall and I turn it pan upside down on a large bottle (like a champaign bottle) to cool it.

I did that once, too. You must put the pan upside down over a bottle like a catsup bottle, so the "feet" on the bottom do not touch the counter. I think it is a great tube pan!

I have only used it for cakes that weigh around 5lbs and it still glides like its empty. I can't imagine that it would "fail" in any way except to turn slowly but I personally wouldn't put a super tall or heavy cake on it since it is an inexpensive plastic and isn't designed to counter balance for height. I can't imagine weight being a problem but going too tall may cause it to lean or tip

No, the bottom always rotates. But it would heat a single slice pretty fast, even rotating.

I had no trouble with it since I mostly make the round cakes. I do wait until it has sufficiently cooled before I slice into it which I did anyway before I got the Slicer. As always make sure the wire is level and you have a level surface to place your cake on and that it does not move then push or pull it slowly. I've done this on 3 cakes and the only time I had trouble was when I did not let it cool enough. Good luck

I don't think so. The bottom of the pan is silver-colored and not closed off. Most induction ready pans say so on the bottom. This is a great pan though. I've used mine several times with good results each time. No sticking if you follow instructions. I used a wooden skewer to turn my cake and it worked like a charm. Hope this helps you.

If you spray the pan with PAM or similar product first and then spread some flour in it, add the cake mix, and then bake the cake. After cake is baked, take it out and let it cool for 5 minutes and flip it over. There should be no sticking to the pan.

the bottom is a flat plate with a funnel which is slightly wider than the bowl. the bowl is bottomless and it sits on the funnel. the funnel cant be placed inside d bowl but rada the bowl is placed on d funnel. the angel food recepee/chiffon calls for u not to greese the sides of the pan so the batter can stick to the sides of the pan when rising during baking. So when u turn it upside down to cool, it doesnt fall off because the cake it still stuck to the pan. You have to use a knife or spatula and run it round the pan and inside the funnel to pry the cake cake away from the sides. To remove the cake from the pan you detach the bowl from the funnel. Leaving you with cake and a funnel in the centre. tk the spatula or knife and run it round through the botton of the funnel thats the metal plate on which the cake is sitting on. All this must be done when the cake is very cool so it doesnt break on you. Hope this helps.

Butter does not fall even though it is upside down. As for kids using it that is iffy, as it is ceramic.

Hi, I bought and used this pan. Love t. To let you know I you use fondant the cake should be delivered or used that same day. I found that it will slip down. I also kept mine in the fridge to keep it firm. I worked somewhat. My problem was that the people changed the deliver date by 2 days so it slid. I also followed the directions to coat the inside the old fashioned way. Crisco and flour. It came out perfect. I hope this helps. Sandi

The cake is so light it does not fall. A much denser cake will fall. Those do not get turned upside down.

Yes, the butter is upside down when closed. When you pack a cube of softened butter into it, it adheres to the sides and bottom of the container. I use a soup spoon to pack it in and eliminate any air pockets. when you place the butter container into the bottom, with @ ¼" of water in it, it creates a vacuum and the butter stays fresh and in place. Kid use, depending upon age, should be no problem as all you do is pull it up out of the container and turn it over. They can easily master gently returning it to the container.

Yes, Have never measured but sure it does. I used to make 7 minute frosting and there is plenty (usually more than I need) to frost a large layered cake. Also have plenty of room for the hand mixer during the cooking process and does not cook over. Yes does set securely on top the bottom pan . I am very pleased with this item.

No when you finish baking to remove bread without making a large hole in the bottom, you reverse the paddle from the bottom and it will collapse the paddle.

I've never had any problems with that. Are you turning the handle to flip it as soon as you pour batter and close?

it will work upside down, you have to just cover the hole when turning it over.

bottom of cake is always up :) that is the most even side... It will also have fewer crumbs than cut side :)
