Is this pan suitable for cooking real chocolate fudge without burning it?

Very much so! The most delicate candies work out well in it. The heavy bottom assures very even heating.

I don't believe so, it's made for tempered choc and then in the fridge. It would prob melt in the oven

The actual aluminum pan can be used at any temperature that you can use for any baking sheet. The lid is NOT for oven use! You need to let your baked item cool off before placing the lid on for storage or refrigeration. This pan is a great size for so many things. I bought it for making fudge and brownies. Now I use it for everything, and I plan to buy another set.

Naturally non stick. A lot of people has issues with sticking, I made chocolates and they popped right out. .

I do not use my pan for any type of food preparation, due to the softness of the aluminum it is made from. I would not recommend purchasing this item.

No this is not for cooking for but rather to make ice or you can pour melted chocolate and put it in the refrigerator but it's not for baking.

I think that claim is total crap. If you overcook or use too much heat, the thing is going to brown and blacken period. The laws of physics don't cease to exist simply because of the toffee-colored finish. However, the pans I am using do a pretty good job so far and seem to be of decent enough quality. Hope this helps.

Yes, it is. It is wonderful to use and soooo easy to clean. The one thing I learned by trial and error is, that this pan cooks very HOT. Most all cakes are baked at 350--if you use it at this temperature, your cake will be to done. I never use it over 300 degree's! I bake my cake's for the same length of time, then use a toothpick to check it to be sure it's done, if not, cook 5 minutes longer and check it again. I am 68 yrs old and bake alot for my Grandchildren. This pan is great! Good luck and happy baking!!

I have used this pan for frying, roasting and braising with good results. As I do not use a metal spoon or implement, there has been no damage to the Teflon. That I think is the key. Make a habit of using wooden spoons and good Tflon instruments.

You should treat this pan as you would any iron utensil. I use a dry terry cloth while it is still hot. When I use it with a recipe with chocolate, or anything that I know will ooze onto it, I make sure to use parchment. The parchment does not hurt the baking effect. Hope this helps. maradot

I would think that's too thick and you wouldn't have even control but never tried it. Not sure I'd want to clean up after either. I'd do fudge/chocolate in a pan and drizzle from a spoon or fork depending on desired effect.

I would assume so. It has a temperature control. We use it for hot fudge and caramel.

I've had no problems thus far. I bought this skillet so I could genuinely scour it if I had to cook something likely to stick to nonstick surfaces. I still use a fairly pedestrian nonstick for less demanding applications. This is a very good quality pan - it should resist warping at least as much as any other brand. One thing I value is its ability to handle oven heat.

I would not use it that way because the cheese or chocolate needs to be in the ceramic insert. Put some hot water in the metal pot, then the ceramic insert with your fondue. Works great. Stir every once in a while for even heating.

Not as well as a thicker pot. I use the base of this with a swissmar clay pot. The thicker pot spreads the heat out so the chocolate or cheese doesn't burn.

It burned slightly with the cheese but we think it is because we put in way too much cheese. We have not tried it with chocolate but I expect it would work well. We are happy with the purchase.

Turn up the heat. It's silicone and takes a higher temp. I had no problem melting chocolate.
