Non-stick "surface?" Does that mean it has an added coating like teflon or is it referring to silicone being naturally "non-stick?"

Silicone is naturally non-stick though a better term might be stick-resistant. Product that are very high in sugar are more prone to stick while baking and silicone that is full of filler is less non-stick. I have several of these Freshware molds and they are all very high quality. You assess the quality by the amount of filler. To see whether there is filler in a silicone mold take a flat area and pinch it between your thumb and forefinger. If it turns white where you are pinching, then it has filler in it and will be more problematic for you.

No, it does not appear to be anything but the shiny surface of silicone. I made cake pops in it (chocolate and dough) and they did not stick.

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

It's natually non-stick. I used this to make homemade gummies. I didn't use any spray at all and they popped right out! It's pliable so pushing from underneath will peel off the gummies or chocolate very cleanly.

There is no added coating to this product. My experience has been that this mold works very well with non-baked goods (i.e. melted chocolate that then sets when chilled in the fridge). However, when using this in the oven to bake things like cakes or brownies, even adding non-stick spray does not prevent sticking.

There is no added coating. It's a flexible silicone mould with a very shiny smooth surface. The food material will not stick to it. Silicone inherrently has non stick properties and you will see it used in many other applications just because of this.

Yes, this West Bend #84866 is lined with a non-stick coating. According to the instruction manual, it is simply referred to as "non-stick finish."I also have a Rival Crockpot, which I use a lot, that is NOT coated with Teflon or Teflon-like coating.

No it is not coated if you are use to Teflon, it will be a disappointment.I am not impressed with the quality either

I hope this helps, but I'm assuming it's teflon because there is a non-stick coating.

Hello Irene, I can't speak from a professional nor scientific standpoint, but personally I don't care for the way that teflon coatings peel and flake-off over time... So I made the switch to ceramic and love it! I no longer have to worry about my cookware losing its 'nonstick' appeal rapidly.

It is a beautiful white, ceramic, non stick surface. No Teflon, or "Teflon like", coating. Ceramic is just naturally non stick. It is gorgeous, does not scratch easily, and so much more healthy that a chemical saturated coating. This is just a beautiful and highly functional set of cookware.

They are not coated with non stick coatings. It does not stick though, so far

It does not have a non-stick coating. It's all stainless steal. It can be seasoned to make it more non-stick...

I retained the packaging but it makes no mention of the word "Teflon", simply "non-stick" so if it's not Teflon, I would expect it to be a similar coating.

It's not coated with anything, but I haven't had a problem with food sticking to it or it getting scratched up. It will damage non-stick pans, so be careful.

It is a silicone glaze release agent which is not a non-stick product. This is a professional grade pan. Extremely nice. There is a video I watched this morning at www.webstaurantstore.com about Chicago Metallic bakeware. From this point forward I will only buy Chicago Metallic. I was very impressed. Thank you so much for asking. I received a very educational lesson today.

HIAccording to the manual it says "non stick" coating. I don't see any identifiers other than that.Good luck

It does not have a "non stick" surface. I would say with a little oil, butter - there is no sticking. It took some getting used to, as our prior set was non stick, but overall, these pans will last far, far longer. Non stick coatings tend to flake, scratch or even peel off over time. Hope that helps.

It does not have a non-stick coating. This is straight, shiny stainless steel and one of the best pans I've worked with since I started cooking. You can use a lower heat for cooking and if anything sticks (pudding or cheese sauce) just run hot water in it and let it sit for about ten minutes and it will clean up with no trouble at all. You won't need high heat to cook in these pans like you do with teflon coated pans. They heat up very nicely on lower heat settings.

It looks like Teflon, but I'm pretty sure it's not. These days there are dozens of formulations for non-stick surfaces. Almost all non-stick surfaces will have a certain expected lifespan, even if treated gently. The surface on this skillet should last a long time; I'm hoping for as long as the rest of the skillet. A five to ten year lifespan for this skillet and surface is about what I expect.

It can be nonstick and not be Teflon. I own this and am now concerned that it's Teflon. (Or at least contains PFOA.) If it does, I'm going to stop using it. Researching now.

http://www.zojirushi.com/index.html website only mentions nonstick, not sure if it teflon.
