Do the cakes brown well in this pan? Reviews online say NO.

The browning happened in blotches....a little here, a little there. The excellent point on this pan is, the cake pops right out, but not very pretty.

I only used it once and it was fine for browning but just make sure you spray it well with Pam otherwise it's very difficult to get out.

I bought this pan for my wife, and I can only say that she considers it her favorite bundt pan. The cakes come out delicious, I don't know much about browning, I can just tell you they taste delicious!

I don't think so. The brown is not very fluid so I would look for something else.

Mine is not really non-stick. I have to grease and flour to keep the cake from sticking. I love this pan but would like it better if it did not stick. I have never had one that would not stick. This pan is heavy and nice quality. I would purchase this again and again.

I've found that if you wait until the cakes are about lukewarm to the touch, they come out without issue. I generally have rather moist recipes though, so it could be related to your recipe as well. I also buttered the silicone quickly before I put the batter in, to make extra sure I wouldn't have to deal with crumbly cakes.

I don't know about the other reviews, but I'm not staff. I don't cook all that often anymore, but the pans work great when I do. So far holding up OK and still nonstick.

Yes they did recommend the Nordic Anniversary platinum bundt pan. It is very sturdy and deep. The cake just slips right out. The best one I have tried yet.

Yes! I've used the pan to make brownies, cake and muffins. Just follow the directions on the box and they'll come out delicious!

I agree with the answer Lohmeyer posted. For cakes I would butter or spray the pans with pam or some oil spray before putting the batter in.

Hello... I think it should altho' I have not tried it myself, preferring to make my own cake mix. Just have some muffin cups on standby to use up any remaining batter. This is a solid and well made pan. So I hope you will give it a shot.

I believe so. Regardless, it is the best bunds pan I have used. My cakes finally do not stick when I try to remove them. I highly recommend it.

No, and that was a selling point for me. I don't want non-stick coatings, and have had no problems with food sticking when I use a spray oil or coconut oil.

No. But I made chili in mine several times and I had no issues. I brown meat and sautee onions and garlic with no problem.

I have only used this for baking. I do not get the feeling that it is for browning meat. Just try a little oil in the pan andif you like, flour the meat and it will brown up. You can also brown without the flour.

I'm not sure if America's test kitchen changed review or not, however the one I purchased it's great, I make sure I grease pan thoroughly, then floured shake excess flour and my cakes slide right out, it cooks evenly, I do turn pan around half cooking time not because of pan but my oven. I did purchase because of American Test Kitchen review . Hope this is helpful.

I just made a chocolate cake in mine using 1 box of cake mix, it came out great, but, I thinknext time I will use 2 boxes to make it higher. it is a deep pan.

I have not had any problems with these pans. You need to be sure they are 100% clean after each use (non-stick sprays leave a residue that is hard to get off) and you should be good to go! Love these little cakes, they do a nice job!
