In my humble opinion, these are a necessity for those of us that have a life and want do not want to spend all of my time trying to prop my loaves up to try to get a decent loaf of bread that can be used to make sandwiches measuring more than 2 inches tall."
"The difference that this rack made was that instead of being flat as they were on a cookie sheet, the loaves were nice and round, which made them much better for making sandwiches from."
"So if you follow a baguette recipe you'll end up more with a 'Pain' shape than a 'Baguette shape' means your bread will be shorter and bigger than a baguette."
"It is light weight too and the non stick makes for easy clean up, Since it isn't recommended that you put in a dish washer ."
"I rubbed the pan very lightly with oil and there was absolutely no issues with the bread sticking to the pan."
"I've made bread for 65 plus years, and I took a picture of the 2 loaves."
"I'd maybe try flattening the pan out a bit to minimize this discrepancy, but would be concerned with weakening the center connection ridge since it's already perforated and bent."
"Best for those wonderful crunchy loaves that taste so amazing when you rip em open still hot just for the joy of fresh hot bread."

Best Specialty Bread & Loaf Forms
Bake Artisan Bread in Your Own Oven Whether you are a seasoned bread baker or a novice, using a banneton will help you get a crispier loaf with a deliciously crunchy crust. This is because banneton baskets are made of natural cane and work by creating a slightly humid micro-climate between the dough and the banneton during proofing. Proofing In Cloth Liner Bannetons are used for proofing the bread dough before baking (commonly referred to as the second rise). Comes with a FREE flexible bowl scraper to help handle wet dough before proofing, care instructions in pdf format. Handcrafted from unbleached natural cane (food-safe and non-toxic, complies with EU food standards and passed all safety testing).

"Note: I haven't tried this with very loose dough, but with any "standard" 3:1 or even 2:1 (flour to water ratio) bread dough it's a champ."
"It's sturdy yet flexible & works wonders and You no longer get bread dough stuck to your hands 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽."
"I might need some more practice with the bread dough (since it was a bit too moist) and was difficult to keep the shape after I took it out of the bannenton."
"The bowl scraper works very well and helps both with getting the dough out after proofing and cleaning before washing."
"I flour the basket well before each proofing and the dough releases easily as I put it on baking surface."
"My husband and I love making our own bread but had one problem, no matter what we tried to do it always came out a little flat."
"I had tried using a floured kitchen towel and a regular bowl before, but the dough always stuck to the towel, creating a big mess."

"Baked the brownies for the exact same time as in a regular pan."
"My home came with a top-heat only convection oven, which never cooks many food items evenly."
"Should have written this a while ago because we love this pan!"
"Has some minor casting imperfections (meaning it's not perfectly smooth), but it's awesome nonetheless if you just like the edge pieces of a particular recipe or you're getting too much variation in consistency from the edge to the middle in a normal pan."

Best Popover Pans
The cups are designed so that as popovers bake, rise, and "pop over" just like in the bakery—they won't spread into the others in the pan. That’s why we’ve been crafting innovative equipment, for professionals and serious home bakers, for over 100 years. Use this pan to make traditional popovers, Yorkshire puddings but can also be used to make traditional muffins.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"But you could also save $3 and buy this other pan that, in my opinion, is a smidgen better than the Chicago Metallic. Compare this to: Bellemain 6 Cup Nonstick Popover Pan. (Available on Amazon). Yes, I felt like a doctor with a jar of butter oiling up the pans, but ANYWAY... That's why popover pans are separated like that to allow air circulation. The extra 0.25" wider mouth allowed the pop over to open ever so slightly more than the Chicago. The Chicago brand had a more straight side (so to speak) whereas the Bellmain curved out slightly more rounded at the top of the cups. I was America Test Kitchen's #1 pick and recommended product. Again, the extra edge the Bellmain had was: smoother opening/curvature of the cup, darker color for better heat absorption, and slightly heavier weight. The slight problem the Bellmain had was more imperfection as detected by my fingers and this may lead to longer term non-stick performance issue but again I cannot predict this without a long-term trial. Both cups when new released the pastry very, very easily without any issue whatsoever. The Bellmain produced a slightly prettier popover than the Chicago. Make sure you hot water soak your eggs, milk, and melt that better before whisking the batter."
"First time I had a popover was at a quaint country restaurant in Wisconsin and they were so good and unique I knew I would want to make them."
"I've read in some of the reviews the their popovers did not pop over. First, if you use too much flour, they will not pop over."
"Arrived within 2 days!"
"After eating popovers fresh out of the oven at the Jordan Pond House in Acadia, Maine, I just had to buy a popover pan!"
"I struggled trying to make popovers with a muffin tin (fail!)."

"The pan worked perfectly but its easier with two people, one to poke the round from underneath and one to gently grab it from the top (they are soft and you have to be careful not to squish them)."
"Hoping you can come up with either a silicon bottom that would seal tightly while cooking or maybe an insert to go over each tin..."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I am in love with this Pizza pan."
"A long review for those curious about the ins and outs of this great piece of cookware. I have also attached photos (see customer images above). SHORT REVIEW. Pros: *Preseasoned. *Multiple uses. *Can be used almost anywhere. *Makes best pizza ever. *Heats evenly. *Won't stain. *Provides iron in diet. *Easy cleanup. *Made in the USA. Cons: *It is 11 pounds (Not a con for me, but could be heavy for some). Bottom Line: Glad I bought it and would recommend it to anyone interested. LONG REVIEW. What comes in the box: *Lodge Logic Preseasoned Pizza Pan 16 x 15 x 2.5 (** Cooking surface is 14 inches **), 11 pounds. Before you can get that true black cast iron slickness, it still needs one or two more rounds in the oven with Crisco or just cook a pound a bacon on it like I did. *Griddle on stove for eggs, bacon, pancakes, burgers, hot dogs and similar items. *Stir Fry (Use it on one burner; the middle gets the hottest and it gets cooler towards the edges, just like a wok!). For example, if I took the pan out of a blazing hot oven and ran cold water on it right away, it may bend or break. The pan heats evenly all the way to the center creating a perfect, uniform crust. (see customer image above). For softer pizza, follow the same directions as above without first baking the dough. Although the pizza does still cook while in the pan, I noticed it basically keeps it warm until the last slice. If you cut your pizza in the pan, please be careful not to scratch seasoning. Because it is cast iron, it won't stain like a pizza stone or get those burnt spots like aluminum does. Normally, I eat about 2/3 of the pie along with a side salad and I am satisfied--I do have a good appetite. (The photos included above do have a US quarter in the picture so you can gauge the size of the pie). Clean up & Seasoning: After cooking, take a dry paper towel while the pan is still warm and wipe it down (if it is really dirty use a little water but I never use soap). Place pan back in the warm oven or on top of the burner just used. Oils that I have used are vegetable, peanut, coconut, Pam, crisco, and lard. Place piece upside down in the center of the middle rack. After 30 minutes, take the piece out and wipe anymore excess oil."
"Not much to add, but if you're serious about making pizza, this is the only pan you'll ever need, regardless of technique."
"My husband makes almost everything from scratch (except cheese & pepperoni) and it's so much better than ordering from papa johns or dominos!"
"I love cast iron and totally love this pan it was a toss up....pizza stone or cast iron. I have no doubt the pizza and potatoes and whatever else I cook on it will be wonderful."
"Nearly 2 days later Amazon shipped it anyhow while saying all that time they were attempting to cancel my order. A couple of days later I noticed that Amazon had removed that statement from their website. Anyway, I tried out the pan last night and just like all of the rest of my Lodge items it worked flawlessly. The family was surprised at how well it turned out even thought I've been making pizzas for them for about 25 years."

"I wouldn't feel comfortable putting any food DIRECTLY on this pan. Don't trust all that gray metallic colored residue that comes off in the washing process. Update Feb 20, 2012: I sent Nordic Ware an e-mail asking if they could explain the reason for all the gray metal color all over everything when I wash this pan. I told them I was very happy to buy a pan made in the USA and the product did perform flawlessly. Update Nov 19, 2012: After almost a year someone commented on my feedback suggesting I try contacting Nordic Ware customer service again. I just got an e-mail saying they received it, reviewed the information, and they're sending me a new pan because THE GRAYING I'M EXPERIENCING IS NOT NORMAL."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I love that all of the pans have a good size handle area on both sides - I used to hate picking up my cake pan or muffin tins and having the thumb of my oven mitt smoosh into the food when I was trying to remove it from a hot oven. As the ham finished cooking, the glaze got WAY more sticky, and leaked out of the foil, all over the cookie pan, bubbled up, and literally burnt onto the surface. I just rinsed the pan with more hot water, and before I even touched it with the sponge, the rest of the burnt goo fell out!! The pan looks brand new, like it had never gone through such a horrible ordeal :-) I have never had a pan that came clean without severe scrubbing, scraping, soaking, and more scrubbing."
"As far as the talk of toxic fumes coming off the metal, or it being bad for your birds and small pets when you use them for the first time (as said in the instructions, which one reviewer did mention), I am sure that it is propably something that California had them write in the warning labels, because these are not teflon coated pans. Still, it is better to be safe and not have any of your birds around your kitchen while you cool or clean anything, because birds are especially sensitive to cleaning materials as well as food cooking sumes. Your oven itself has materials in it which can affect birds every time you heat it up."
"Got these for our college son and he uses them all the time."
"One negative: The first few times you wash them in a dishwasher, beware of water dripping from under the rolled edges of the pan (it is darkly stained with rust from the unprotected steel under the rolled edge)."
"These are the easiest things to cook/bake on!"
"I had this in my oven and the silicon burnt off at 375 degrees."
"Update: Tried to get a replacement with Rachel Ray and they told me they were not in charge of their products, I had to call the manufacturer, Meyer, and they said we had to pay for the shipping to them, they would "inspect it" to make sure I was not the one to cause the defect and then they might send a replacement."

After filling one of the pans with batter using a spoon (it can be done but it's a bit time consuming when you have salivating guests gathered about), I piped in the batter to the second pan with my pastry bag."
"I use this all of the time and I think I need to invest in a couple more so I can bust out more awesome donuts at a time."
"Here's a photo of what my doughnuts looked like even after I attempted to grease a nonstick pan. I'm sorry Wilton, I love your nonstick pans and I will continue to use them with a generous amount of nonstick spray. But I think you should change the name of the pan to just 6-Cavity Donut Pan because they are not nonstick."
"To ease removing the doughnuts from the baking pans, I used some Wilton Cake Release to ensure the doughnuts slipped out of their nonstick pans. If you put too much batter in the pan, the doughnut holes will fill-in and the doughnuts look more like muffins."
"I ordered 2 of these pans to make doughnuts with my little granddaughters."

The coupler is not necessary - you can always just drop your tip into the bag before adding icing. But it is really nice if you plan to use a few different tips, you can use the coupler and very easily change the tip without having to use another bag and more icing. If you are planning to use the same tip with multiple colors, though, you'll probably need a few more couplers (or at least coupler bases) as the coupler base goes into the bag with the icing. Along with the coupler is a bag cutter."

"I bought a small cotton candy maker, one that you could either use hard candy or flossing sugar."
"My son wanted a home machine, and now we make it when he brings home a perfect spelling test."
"Great flavors!"
"I will definitely move this to my "Buy Again" list once I figure out how to do it but surely, I will be purchasing this item many times over."
"The hard candy started making the cotton candy right away."
"I had tried hard candy, as the machine suggests, but it only made very small servings and was rather messy."
"The at home cotton candy machine was not nearly what I expected so we rented a "real" one from the rental company we got his bouncy castle from...."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I estimate that I use the small mat every other day usually to reheat pastries and bake frozen foods in a toaster oven. The mats are NOT made for a toaster oven though, as the second small mat I tested suffered the same fate as the first: browning, peeling & cracking of the colored parts. Also, make sure to always place the mats on a solid tray when baking and not one with any perforation as the mat will discolor at the exposed spots."
"After many hours of reading reviews of other mats, specifically the WonderKitchen Silicone Baking Mat Set, I decided to go with these because I very often use half sheets (and sometimes two at a time) and I wasn't sure I'd even use the round mat that came with the WonderKitchen set; I usually make my pizza crusts larger than 14" diameter. After lining the bottom of one with the orange mat for baking tater tots at 450 degrees for 35 minutes, the mat had discolored: it looked like it had burnt. I've also used the same mat and the red mat for the exact same food (tater tots) on the exact same temperature for around the same amount of time (sometimes longer others shorter) to test (and because I love tater tots) and the discoloration hasn't occurred on the red mat nor has it increased the amount of discoloration on the orange mat. I'm concerned because, after baking with the orange mat that ended up discoloring the first time, it left behind little mesh marks on my sheets."
"These mats are great."
"They work well but none of the mats seem to fit my standard size pans quite right."
"Even though she didnt know she could put them in the oven and was using them to put things on after they came out of the oven because she thought they would melt.."
"I love that they are keeping my new pans looking nice, and they are easy to clean with just warm soapy water."
"Also makes it so I'm not having to wash the actual pans anymore because the food is always sitting on these."
"I bought these mats to save on parchment paper while baking cloud bread--it did stick a bit where on the parchment it doesn't."
