Nordic Ware Small Heritage Bundt® Cake Pan

Nordic Ware based this vintage design on an old German kugelhopf mould, which created a ring-shaped dessert similar to an American coffee cake. Designed for a petite version of the Heritage Bundt Cake, this pan turns out an intricately sculpted cake with sweeping curves. To finish the cake, just add a simple glaze or sprinkling of icing sugar.

• Petite pan works perfectly with one Williams-Sonoma Quick Bread Mix — or use two pans for one Williams-Sonoma Bundt Cake Mix.
• Durable cast-aluminium pan distributes heat quickly and evenly to promote even rising, uniform baking and a golden crust.
• Centre tube conducts extra heat to the middle of the cake for even baking.
• Nonstick interior ensures effortless release and cleanup.
• Made in the USA by Nordic Ware, a family-owned company famous for its fine bakeware since 1946.

Use

• Before each use, wash pan with hot, soapy water.
• Oven safe to 230°C.
• Use only wood, silicone, plastic or other nonmetallic utensils to avoid scratching the surface.
• For best results, brush pan with an unsalted solid vegetable shortening and dust with flour. You can also use vegetable oil or a nonstick baking spray. If using a spray, check to make sure that it does not contain lecithin, which can cause a gummy residue. Turn pan upside down and tap to remove excess flour. These steps will help ensure easy release and excellent pattern definition.
• After baking, cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Tap pan firmly a few times, then invert, lift pan away and let the cake continue to cool on rack.
• To prevent overflow, do not fill more than 3/4 full.

Care

• Hand-wash. Dry thoroughly.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners such as metal scouring pads, as they can damage the surface.
• A soft sponge or kitchen brush will remove baked-on food particles. You may need to scrub lightly.
