Is this pan non-stick? I'm looking for a pan that is NOT non-stick so that I can cool the cake with the pan upside down.

It does not have a non-stick coating. It's pure anodized aluminum and cleans up easily.

It doesn't have a non stick coating, I am so done with those. I have not tried to turn it upside down though, the cake does release from the side, I don't decorate cakes really as I just frost in the pan.

No, this pan is not non-stick. You have to grease & flour it in order for the cake to release. However, I do not cool my cakes upside down. I simply let it cool in the pan on a rack for about 5 minutes, & then invert it onto another rack to let it cool completely. Hope this helps!

No its not, but I usual my wait about 10 minutes or so b4 I flip the cake over and leave the cover over it.

It is not very sticky, but if you let it unattended, it is going to get sticky. It is a better steel. But still, it should not be termed as to a non stick pan. If you are looking for a zero-mess pan, this is not the one. If you are ready to soak it a bit before cleaning and you are not very careless to let the food char, this would be an absolute good buy.

no. and I am revising my opinion. don't get it if you want a non stick. just get a cheap non stick.. wears out... get another.

I've used the pan often and for quite a long time and the coating is wonderful- non stick but not teflon type. I'm extremely happy with it.

No, it is not non-stick. I use oil and it work just fine, and cleans up in a snap.

I have not yet tried taking an entire cake out all at once but it definitely is non-stick. I might use parchment on the bottom only as extra insurance.

it is not a non-stick surface. You have to make sure you oil, pam, butter the pan well in order for items to not stick. It's a little learning curve if you haven't cooked like this before, but I love my SS skillets way more than the teflon coated skillets I've had in the past.

You are correct. It is not "non stick" surface. If you preheat the cookware, and use proper cooking technique nothing will stick!

It's a fry pan. You need to have some kind of fat to fry in. This is not non-stick. I love this pan and use it all the time.

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

No, it's not non stick (which is why I bought it). But the surface of the panini maker is non-stick.

I ordered this pan thinking it would be non-stick coating on the inside, but when I received it, it was stainless all over with no non-stick coating. It's a great pan, but not non-stick as it claims. .

As far as I know it is not non stick. It will need periodic cleaning much like a oven.

I would say that yours is flawed. I have been so happy with mine that I'd be surprised if you were treated less than graciously by the seller. The total non-stickedness of this pan is part of what makes it great. Get a good one.

I'e had no problems with cakes sticking in this pan. I do use Pam in it first. I love it.

My cakes are slipping out when I turn them upside down too. I noticed you're Chinese? Are you making a Chinese style chiffon cake? That's what I'm making. If you were able to remedy this problem please let me know what you did as I can no longer return the pan and it's going to be a waste. Thanks!

Yes, the pan is non-stick (Fluorine Resin coating, i.e. Teflon), however I would suggest putting a little oil in the pan before adding the batter to ease turning the balls.
